Prettige feite
Liliensternus is the best-known Triassic theropod from Europe.1
The fossils were found by Count Hugo Rühle von Lilienstern in the winter of 1932/1933 near Großer Gleichberg in Germany.1
Liliensternus had a shorter shin bone (tibia) than thigh bone (femur), which is different from some other early theropods like Coelophysis.1
It lived about 210 million years ago, during the Late Triassic Period.1
The dinosaur's name honors Count Hugo Rühle von Lilienstern, who helped paleontology in Germany by starting a museum in his castle.1
Some scientists think Liliensternus could run fast to catch small ornithischian dinosaurs.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Liliensternus
?How big was Liliensternus?
About 5.15 metres (16.9 feet) long and maybe 127 kilograms (280 pounds), but some fragmentary remains suggest adults could reach 7 to 9 metres.1
?What did Liliensternus eat?
It was a meat-eater that probably hunted large herbivores like Plateosaurus and also chased fast ornithischian dinosaurs.1
?Did Liliensternus have feathers?
Nobody knows for sure. The fossils don't show feathers, and most Triassic theropods are not known to have them.1
?When did Liliensternus live?
It lived about 210 million years ago, during the Late Triassic Period.12
?Could Liliensternus run fast?
Yes, it was a fast runner. Paul (1988) noted it used its speed to catch swift ornithischian dinosaurs.1
?Was Liliensternus bigger than T. rex?
No, T. rex was much bigger. Liliensternus was about 5 metres long, while T. rex was over 12 metres long.1
