Fossil footprints that look uncannily human were made by an extinct human relative ~1.4 million years ago & reveal that it was bigger & heavier than once thought—roughly equivalent to modern humans. Tracks also show that a group of these hominins crossed a lake bed that was home to crocs & hippos 🧪
