SCARBOROUGH, U.K. - TelAve -- newly described dinosaur track assemblage from the Middle Jurassic Burniston Footprint Bed in Yorkshire provides rare evidence of different dinosaur species occupying the same environment at roughly the same time.

The findings suggest they may have interacted and offer valuable insights into dinosaur behaviour, sociality and community structure in Jurassic Britain.
