Hmmm... if he was found in the lake bed, then it probably means he was not a very good swimmer :)

Reminds me of a Sherlock Holmes mystery:

"Watson, we are looking a red-headed man, about six foot four. He is employed as a mason, but last Saturday he earned a few shillings as a bootblack. He was born in Blackpool but now resides near Charring Cross."

"My God Holmes! How do you know all this?"

"Elementary my dear Watson. He left a half-smoked cigar in that ashtray. That tells me everything I need to know about him."

"The 15-metre (48.75-feet) -long track in sandstone "strongly suggests a floating animal clawing the sediment" as it swam against a current, they say."

As the creature became more adapted to water, it became increasingly ungainly on land...

I always thought that many of the Dinosaurs would have lived much of their lives in water to help support their weight.

Given the size of many of the examples one would think that the atmospheric pressure was much higher then or they were more at home in the water.

If the feet are touching the bottom, it was wading, not swimming. Probably just trying to get to shore at the time of the flood.
