In the 1998 Godzilla , our titular monster had ft closely resemble those of theropod dinosaurs with three forrader - pointing toes , tipped with soft razor - discriminating claws . The footprints are 12 foot foresightful , enough to comfortably hold coterie of sleeping humans . Using the same relationship between foot size and hip - height as used with theropod dinosaur , the 1998 Godzilla ’s hips should loom 48 metrical unit above the soil .
In the late release , one of the many change is a revisioning of Godzilla ’s human foot . Less of a theropod , this time the monstrosity is more like a sauropod with four toes . This means that a ichnologist could identify the two movies just by the tracks left behind by Gozilla stomping around .
Footprints are n’t the only track Godzilla leave behind . Ichnologist Tony Martin has analyzed the intact lot of diverse traces on his blog , The Ichnology of Godzilla . Tomorrow we ’ll be look at more ichnology and his book , dinosaur Without Bones . For moreGodzilla science , we ’ve looked before at score the movie based on not just plausibleness , but also the inventive coating of science .
