Just when I thought people saying they sighted Bigfoot in Central Texas would throw me for a loop, fishermen out fishing in Hutto, Texas, a city just outside of Austin, saw something very peculiar. Dinosaur tracks that’s right, possible dinosaur tracks were found in the area when two fishermen noticed a very unusual print while walking toward the riverbank.

It Had To Be Just A Really Big Animal

Now, I know you’re probably thinking to yourself, “It might’ve just been a very large animal.” But according to our understanding, the individuals told Chron that the prints were way larger than their hands and feet put together. It was estimated that the print was anywhere between 18 and 25 inches long. That just doesn’t sound like a large bird anymore, because that was definitely my first guess.

What Do Experts Say About The Prints?

The fishermen also said there were only two clear prints in the mud when they walked up to the area. There could have possibly been more, but they said they’re just not super familiar with dinosaur tracks. That’s why they felt it was possible the prints belonged to something supernatural or even prehistoric. paleontologist named Thomas Adams, who is also the chief curator and curator of paleontology at the Witte Museum in San Antonio, got a chance to review the fishermen’s pictures. He said that they actually do resemble dinosaur footprints. However, the prints were very weathered, making it somewhat difficult to say with certainty exactly what they are without seeing them in person.

What Is The Print That The Fishermen See?

Apart from the estimate, Adams thinks that, if they were to be any type of dinosaur track, it could potentially be a tridactyl or another three-toed track due to the tridactyl shape of the prints. I want to say this is one of the craziest stories that I’ve heard. But nowadays, from hearing that you can’t even go into the ocean because there are prehistoric animals down there to possible tridactyl tracks in Hutto, what can you even believe?
