World's Biggest Dinosaur Foot Has Been Identified by Paleontologists 20 years ago, the largest dinosaur foot
ever to be found-- measuring almost
3 feet across -- was found in Wyoming. The size and shape of the bones have led researchers to believe that it belonged to a brachiosaur who would have lived about 150 million years ago. David Burnham, a paleontologist at the University of Kansas Biodiversity Institute, estimates that the dinosaur was about the length of a blue whale. David Burnham, via 'Science News' So huge, that this
particular dinosaur
has earned the
nickname "Bigfoot." It was originally known that brachiosaurs of the late Jurassic period roamed parts of what is now Colorado, Utah and southern Wyoming. "Bigfoot" was found in northeastern Wyoming, which indicates that brachiosaurs roamed further
than previously thought.
