Samrukia

Naam beteken: “Samruk, the magical bird from Kazakh folklore”1
Het geëet: VisVlieënde reptieleLaat KrytTegnies nie 'n dinosourus nie

Samrukia was a huge flying reptile that lived in what is now Kazakhstan. It had a very long jaw, and scientists first thought it was a giant bird. Now they think it was a pterosaur, a flying reptile that lived at the same time as dinosaurs.1

Prettige feit: pterosourusse het oor die dinosourusse gevlieg, maar hulle was hul neefs, nie self dinosourusse nie.

Prettige feite

1

Samrukia is known only from a single lower jaw bone, which is more than 275 millimetres long.2

2

When first discovered, scientists thought Samrukia was a giant bird, but later studies showed it was a pterosaur.1

3

Samrukia lived about 84 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.1

4

If Samrukia could fly, its wingspan might have been about 4 metres (13 feet). If it was flightless, it might have been 2 to 3 metres (6.6 to 9.8 feet) tall.1

5

The jaw of Samrukia has no teeth, so it probably had a beak.2

6

Samrukia is named after Samruk, a magical bird from Kazakh mythology.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Samrukia

?Was Samrukia a dinosaur?

No, Samrukia was a pterosaur, a flying reptile that lived at the same time as dinosaurs. It is not a dinosaur.1

?How big was Samrukia?

If it could fly, its wingspan might have been about 4 metres (13 feet). If it was flightless, it might have been 2 to 3 metres (6.6 to 9.8 feet) tall.1

?What did Samrukia eat?

Samrukia had no teeth in its lower jaw, so it probably had a beak. Scientists think it may have eaten fish or other small animals, but no one knows for sure.1

Mite-breker

Mite: Samrukia was a giant bird.

Waarheid: Scientists now agree that Samrukia was a pterosaur, not a bird. The jaw bone has features that are only found in pterosaurs.1

Ontdekking
Samrukia was named in 2012 by Darren Naish and his team. The only fossil, a lower jaw, was found in the Bostobynskaya Formation in Kazakhstan.14
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure if Samrukia could fly or if it was flightless, because only its jaw has been found.1
