2

Scientists found small bumps on its arm bone that might be quill knobs, places where feathers attach.12

3

It lived about 130 to 125 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous Period.1

4

Its fossils were found at Las Hoyas in Spain, which was once an inland lake.1

5

Concavenator belongs to the carcharodontosaur group, which means 'shark-toothed lizards'.1

6

The hump on Concavenator's back might have been used for display or to store fat, but scientists are not sure.2
