Haya was a small, plant-eating dinosaur that lived in what is now Mongolia. It had a long, horse-like skull and a beak for snipping plants. Some Haya skeletons were found with a pile of stomach stones, which helped it grind up tough leaves.1

Prettige feite

Haya lived about 85 to 72 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.2

One Haya skeleton, called IGM 100/2015, was found with a big pile of gastroliths, stones that the dinosaur swallowed to help digest plants.1

The name Haya comes from Hayagriva, a Hindu god with a horse head, because Haya's skull is long and horse-like.1

Scientists have found several Haya fossils, including skulls, leg bones, and nearly complete skeletons.1

Haya was a small dinosaur, but its exact size is not known from the fossils found so far.2

Some scientists think Haya was closely related to dinosaurs like Jeholosaurus and Changchunsaurus, while others place it in a different group called Thescelosauridae.1

KI-prent van Haya — 'n KI-prent van hoe Haya dalk gelyk het, deur 'n rekenaar gemaak uit wat wetenskaplikes weet. Dit is 'n raaiskoot: die regte dier het dalk anders gelyk, en niemand weet wat sy regte kleure was nie.

Vir dino-kenners

Wetenskaplike naam: Haya
Benoem deur: Makovicky et al. 20113
Groep: Plantvreters met snawels
Familie / klade: Thescelosauridae3
Klassifikasie: Ornithischia3
Ouderdom van die rotse: 86 tot 72 miljoen jaar (Santonian / Campanian)3
Rotsformasies: Javkhlant, Djadokhta3
Lande: Mongolië3
Fossielrekords: 2 in The Paleobiology Database3
Ontdekking: Haya was named in 2011 by Peter Makovicky and his team. The first fossils were collected in Mongolia between 2002 and 2007 by the Mongolian Academy of Sciences.1
Steeds omstrede: Scientists are not sure exactly where Haya belongs on the dinosaur family tree. Some studies put it in Jeholosauridae, others in Thescelosauridae.1
