Dinosaur and (Large) Mammal tracks side by side - video
Location - In 2012, an amateur fossil hunter found a slab of rock covered in ancient footprints on the campus of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Analyzing it, it shows large and small mammal foot prints side by side with large bird-like and dinosaur foot prints.
Archeologists had believed prior to this that only SMALL mammals the size of mice/rodents were there, nothing bigger.. They now feel the largest mammal's tracks were something the size of a large badger.
The 110-million-year-old rock contained 70 tracks in total, some made by dinosaurs—sauropods, pterosaurs, theropods, and different sized mammal tracks.

Theropods:
Pterosaur (scale shown):
