Khankhuuluu

Het geëet: VleisTirannosourusseLaat Kryt

Khankhuuluu was a meat-eating dinosaur that lived in what is now Mongolia, about 100 to 84 million years ago. It was a cousin of the famous Tyrannosaurus rex, but it was smaller and more lightly built. Scientists think it helps show how big tyrannosaurs evolved from smaller ancestors.15

Prettige feite

1

Khankhuuluu is known from fossils found in rocks that are between 100.5 and 83.6 million years old, from the Cenomanian to Santonian ages.5

2

Scientists think Khankhuuluu was a close relative of the group that includes Tyrannosaurus rex, but it lived earlier and was not as big.1

3

Khankhuuluu had a shallow skull and a gracile, or slender, build, similar to some young tyrannosaurs. This suggests it kept some baby-like features into adulthood.1

4

The discovery of Khankhuuluu helped scientists figure out that tyrannosaurs moved from Asia to North America and then later came back to Asia.1

5

Khankhuuluu is the only species in its genus, and its full scientific name is Khankhuuluu mongoliensis.5

Ontdekking
Khankhuuluu was named by a team of scientists in 2025. The fossils were found in Mongolia and are stored at the Institute of Paleontology in Ulaanbaatar.15
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are still debating exactly how Khankhuuluu is related to other tyrannosaurs, and whether some features it shares with later tyrannosaurs were inherited or evolved separately.1
