Nothing much is known about it so far except that it was a small carnivore, it lived furing the Early Cretaceous period, it lived in a desert Habitat and it was about 60-90 cm (2-3 feet tall).

It is a "new ichnogenus and ichnospecies of theropod footprints based on these fossil remains" according to the Wikipedia page. Link to the Wikipedia page; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farlowichnus
