One of the coolest things about Portugal is the lack of regulation. For example, here we are on the beach, and we have complete access to this set of fossilized dinasaur tracks on the beach in Salema. here's some text I lifted from the geological investigation:
The prints on the shelf of Lower Cretaceous rock are those of a herbivorous biped also known as an Ornithopod. This was a three-toed (tridactyl) creature, and it is the rounded shape of these toes, with no claw marks, that implies it only ate vegetation.
