Albertavenator

Naam beteken: “Alberta hunter”1

Albertavenator was a small, fast, bird-like dinosaur that lived in Canada about 71 million years ago. It had a short, wide skull bone that made it different from other smart raptors. Scientists think it ate meat and maybe plants too.12

Prettige feite

1

Albertavenator is known only from a few skull bones, especially the frontal bone of the forehead.1

2

Its frontal bone is very short and wide, with a length-to-width ratio less than 1.3, shorter than any other known troodontid from the Late Cretaceous.12

3

The name Albertavenator means 'Alberta hunter' and honors paleontologist Philip J. Currie.1

4

It lived during the early Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous, about 71 million years ago.1

5

Its fossils were found in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation, which was a cool, swampy floodplain with redwoods and ferns.1

6

Albertavenator was a troodontid, a group of smart, bird-like raptors that had large brains and sharp claws.1

julle het gevra

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Albertavenator

?How big was Albertavenator?

About the size of a person, based on comparisons with its close relative Troodon. It was a small-bodied troodontid.41

?Did Albertavenator have feathers?

Yes, scientists think it was covered in feathers, like its close relative Troodon.4

?What did Albertavenator eat?

Scientists think it ate meat and maybe plants too, based on its teeth and jaw remains.1

?When did Albertavenator live?

It lived about 71 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.14

Mite-breker

Mite: Some people think all troodontids were just one species called Troodon.

Waarheid: Albertavenator shows that there were many different troodontid species in the Late Cretaceous, each with unique skull features.12

Ontdekking
Albertavenator was named in 2017 by David C. Evans and his team. The first fossil, a partial left frontal bone, was found in the early 1990s near Drumheller, Alberta, Canada.12
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure if teeth and jaw bones found in the same formation belong to Albertavenator or to other troodontids.2
