From 1995 until 1997, the paleontologist Jean-Michel Mazin and his team were digging at Crayssac near Cahors on the most
important paleontology site in Europe, a fossilized beach, 140 million years old. Tide after tide, prints of animals now long gone were drawn. During the course of their search, the researchers ask themselves : what animal is it? how did it walk ? The analysis of print castings confirm or not their theories.
