Ceratopsipes

Ceratopsipes goldenensis is an ichnospecies of dinosaur footprint. It is represented by massive pes prints approaching 80 centimetres (31 in) in width. If undistorted, the tracks may represent an unusually large ceratopsian dinosaur that could have potentially been as large as 12 metres (39.4 feet).
