Prettige feite

Beibeilong laid the largest known dinosaur eggs, each over 40 centimeters long.1

The baby skeleton is only 23 centimeters long, but it was probably an embryo that had just hatched.1

Its name means 'baby dragon' in Chinese, because the fossil was nicknamed 'Baby Louie'.1

Beibeilong is the first caenagnathid dinosaur known from both eggs and bones together.1

The eggs were so big that the baby would have fit inside with room to spare, taking up only about two-thirds of the egg's volume.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Beibeilong

?Was Beibeilong a dinosaur?

Yes, Beibeilong was a type of dinosaur called a caenagnathid, which is part of the oviraptorosaur group. It lived in China during the Late Cretaceous period, about 96 to 88 million years ago.2

?How big was Beibeilong?

Beibeilong was a huge dinosaur, about 7.5 metres long and weighed around 1.5 to 2 metric tons. That is as big as some of the largest oviraptorosaurs.2 1

Yes, Beibeilong was a feathered dinosaur. It looked a bit like a giant bird, with feathers covering its body.4

Mite-breker
