Prettige feite

Chungkingosaurus had a thagomizer with two pairs of stout spikes and an extra pair of long, thin spikes at the very tip of its tail.1

It was one of the smallest stegosaurs, with an adult skeleton less than 4 metres long.1

Its back plates looked like modified spikes, with a thickened middle section.1

Chungkingosaurus lived alongside other plant-eaters like Tuojiangosaurus and Mamenchisaurus, and might have been hunted by the meat-eater Yangchuanosaurus.1

Some scientists think Chungkingosaurus might be a juvenile of Tuojiangosaurus, but others disagree.1

The first fossils were found near Chongqing, China, starting in 1977.1

?How big was Chungkingosaurus?

About 4 metres (13 feet) long for the smallest adult, but some specimens may have been 5 metres or longer.1 2

?What did Chungkingosaurus eat?

It was a herbivore, meaning it ate plants.1 2

?When did Chungkingosaurus live?

It lived during the Late Jurassic Period, about 163.5 to 157.3 million years ago.1 2

?Where was Chungkingosaurus found?

?Did Chungkingosaurus have feathers?

No, it was an armoured dinosaur with plates and spikes, not feathers.2

?Is Chungkingosaurus a dinosaur?

Yes, it is a genus of stegosaurian dinosaur.1 2

Mite-breker

Mite: Chungkingosaurus is just a young Tuojiangosaurus.

Waarheid: Some scientists think so, but others say it is a separate genus because of differences in its skull and teeth.1
