Talk:Hibbertopterus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Proposed merger
I see no reason why the tracks of an animal should be treated separately from the animal itself. It can hardly be because the article would be too long otherwise. --Stemonitis 12:41, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi. Well, one reason for keeping two separate articles is that hibbertopteroid track is about a specific geological feature that may be interesting in its own right for loads of reasons...discoverer, other tracks or fossils nearby, geology, etc etc. None of this would be relevant to hibbertopteroids, but very relevant to hibbertopteroid track. Keep separate, that's what I say.
best wishes

Why was it walking sideways on a wall, and why was the wall soft at the time? It looks like sedimentary rock to me.
