Observing guineafowl running on soft mud shows math used to calculate dinosaur speed may be inaccurate

An international team has found that equations to determine the speed of a moving dinosaur based on prints in trackways may be inaccurate. In their study published in the journal Biology Letters, the group urged test guineafowl to walk or run across a muddy course and then used standard equations to calculate their pace.
