Storms reveal huge dinosaur footprint on beach
A palaeontologist has discovered a huge dinosaur footprint on a beach on the Isle of Wight. Fossil guide Joe Thompson said the 130-million-year-old Iguanodon print at Shepherd's Chine was the best footprint he had ever found. The three-toed shape, which is almost 1m (3ft) across, was revealed after storms stripped the beach of shingle.
