Dinosaur tracks, also known as trace fossils and dinosaur footprints, show more than the size and shape of a dinosaur's feet. They tell us whether the dinosaur walked, trotted or ran. Dinosaur tracks show the number of toes. They tell us whether the dinosaur lived alone or in herd. And dinosaur tracks tell us where and when a dinosaur lived. The study of dinosaur tracks is called ichnology but the people that study them are rarely called ichnologists. They are known as trackers instead.
