Brontopodus is an ichnogenus of dinosaur footprint by sauropod trackmaker. This ichnogenus is mainly characterized by a wide-gauge trackway, which is distinguishable from narrow-gauge sauropod tracks like Breviparopus or Parabrontopodus.[1] Sauropods with broad bodies, such as titanosaurs are thought to be their trackmakers.[2]
