Dinosaur footprint find changes what we know about prehistoric beasts in the UK

• Newly identified Dinosaur footprints on the Isle of Skye reveal that meat-eating megalosaurs and plant-eating sauropods coexisted around freshwater lagoons 167 million years ago.
• Analysis of 131 footprints at Prince Charles's Point suggests the dinosaurs congregated around the lagoon, similar to modern-day animal behavior at watering holes.
• The footprints indicate that both predator and prey preferred the lagoon environment over drier mudflats.
• The discovery makes the site one of the most extensive Dinosaur track sites in Scotland, with the potential for more finds.
• The site's name, Prince Charles's Point, also marks a historical connection to Bonnie Prince Charlie's hideout in 1746.
