As for footprints. I am not sure on how they are formed, it surely is a miracle that footprints can be preserved for millions of years.

But if you look at the millions of monkeys on typewriters theory, it really isn't that hard to imagine that we would find imprints.

Dinosaurs from the Triassic to the end of the Cretaceous lived on earth for 160million years. In that immense amount of time, I am sure that the incredibly rare and near impossible requirements for imprints to be preserved for millions of years would have happened more than once.

What those requirements are, I am not entirely sure. But like I already said, fossilized footprints, along with fossilized paleo organisms are such an amazing phenomenon, that it is borderline miraculous.
