2

Its name comes from a monster in the mythology of the Aonikenk people that kills with cold wind.1

3

Maip had a very wide chest, more than 1.2 metres across, which is why its species name is 'macrothorax' meaning 'big chest'.1

4

It lived near the end of the Age of Dinosaurs, about 72 to 66 million years ago.6

5

Maip is known from a partial skeleton including many back bones, ribs, and part of the shoulder.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Maip

?How big was Maip?
