Re: Oldest North American Bird Tracks

[Jean-Michel BENOIT <s.aegyptiacus@wanadoo.fr>]

Hello all
knowing the relationship between birds (avialians) and dinos, how can one be
sure that these tracks have not been made by a small (non aviian) dinosaur
(known or not)?
Sorry if this is a silly question.
Cheers,
Jean-Michel
