I was reading the Hitchcock paper from 1836 on dinosaur tracks,
reproduced as a chapter in The Dinosaur Papers. He describes one
ichnospecies, Ornithichnites ingens, which are 3-toed but are combined
with what looks like fur/hair/feather imprints at the back of each
print. Has there been any modern interpretation of these tracks?
