Naam beteken: “slow lizard”1

Segnosaurus was a big, slow-moving dinosaur with a small head, a long neck, and huge claws on its hands. It used its beak to nibble plants and its big belly to digest them. Unlike most meat-eating dinosaurs, this one was a gentle giant that ate only plants.1

Prettige feite

1

Segnosaurus had four toes on each foot, while most other meat-eating dinosaurs had only three.1

2

Its name means 'slow lizard' because scientists thought it was a slow-moving animal.1

3

Segnosaurus lived about 102 to 86 million years ago in what is now Mongolia.1

4

It had a horny beak at the tip of its jaws, like a bird, to help it eat plants.1

5

Some of its teeth had extra ridges and even a third cutting edge, which is unusual for a plant-eater.1

6

Segnosaurus was probably covered in simple, fluffy feathers, like its relatives Beipiaosaurus and Jianchangosaurus.1

Segnosaurus was named by Mongolian paleontologist Altangerel Perle in 1979, based on fossils found in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia.12
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure exactly how big Segnosaurus was, because different studies give very different weight estimates, from about 1.3 tonnes to over 4 tonnes.1
