These species of theropod Dinosaurs are known only by the traces they left in the mud, that have subsequently been turned to stone. It is by reading such tracks that scientist are able to piece together clues about the lives of these long lost taxa. Nash's Dinosaur Track Quarry has been in the same family for over 80 years, and has unearthed ichnotaxa related to the famous finds of the 19th century in the red sandstone of Holyoke, Massachusetts. These Dinosaurs were thought to have lived in packs, but based mapping analysis carried out in 2012 of over 700 tracks a behaviour of shoreline-paralleling is preferred.
