Claire was chuffed their hunch was right and has invigorated her junior dino hunter daughter."It's hard to comprehend you're walking on the same beach that hundreds of millions of years ago some massive prehistoric animal was here," she said.
"You can spend a lifetime looking for dinosaur treasures so for it to happen for Tegan at this age is great."The latest prehistoric find on this stretch of coast is a print from the sauropod family of dinosaurs - including the brachiosaurus and diplodocus, distinctive by their very long necks, long tails, big body and small head.Cindy believes the footprint is from a camelotia, that lived across parts of Europe.
Little is known about them - compared what experts know about stegosaurus, triceratops and the mighty T-rex - but it is thought they walked on their front feet and their hind limbs, were herbivorous and from the late Triassic period."We think these prints were made by a reasonably large, herbivorous dinosaur, added Cindy.
"While we haven't any bones here, bones of similiar dinosaurs were found on the other side of the Bristol Channel.
"A camelotia would have stood about 3m (10ft) tall, 4-5m (13-16ft) long and is an early sauropodomorph with a relatively long neck, long tail and walked on two legs but could walk on all four when grazing for food."Any further time in prison potentially gives German prosecutors more time to pursue an appeal
