Table 6. BP3 large bipedal trackmaker size and velocity estimations.
Average Approximate Trackmaker Hip Height (cm) | Estimated Velocity | ||
---|---|---|---|
m/s | km/hr | ||
BP3_Twy_1 | 128 | 1.9 | 7.0 |
BP3_Twy_2 | 169 | 0.77 | 2.8 |
The range in approximate trackmaker sizes at BP3 indicates that at least two differently sized individuals were present on the mudflat. BP3_Twy_02’s trackmaker represents the largest individual at the site and was moving at the slowest estimated velocity.
