Ummmm. Read the article:

From the quoted LiveScience article:

“A 4-inch-long (10 cm) track belonging to the raccoon-size mammal is the largest mammal print from the Cretaceous on record. Its size is surprising, given that most dinosaur-age mammals were the size of squirrels or prairie dogs, the researchers said.”

Coppedge comments on that statement:

“Why not ask, “Were these creatures scrambling to get away from muddy water surging in, that covered their tracks before they could be eroded? That could explain the lack of overlap and the absence of bones of the animals. The animals were swept away by the surge, but the tracks were instantly covered. Once again we see evolutionists surprised to find good-sized mammals with dinosaurs.”

Other research has cited that, “while Fred’s two feet left footprints that would have established clear evidence that man and dinosaur co-exised, the weight of the stone rear wheel of Mr. Flintstone’s vehicle covered Fred’s footprints.”

...

It’s only surprising because none have been found before, not because they are impossible. Atmospheric conditions during that time led to large animals.

Well, the Cretaceous was 65 MILLION years ago. Are you saying Noah’s flood happened then?
