Prettige feite

1

Thanatotheristes is the oldest tyrannosaurid dinosaur ever found in Canada.2

2

Its name comes from the Greek god Thanatos, meaning death, and theristes, meaning harvester.1

3

The only known fossil is a partial skull from a large subadult, about 80 centimeters long.2

4

It had a very rough, bumpy surface on its upper jaw bone, which may have been for display.2

5

Thanatotheristes is a close relative of Daspletosaurus, and together they form a group called Daspletosaurini.1

6

It lived alongside other dinosaurs like the horned Xenoceratops and the dome-headed Colepiocephale.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Thanatotheristes

?How big was Thanatotheristes?

Thanatotheristes was about 8 metres (26 feet) long, based on skull material and comparisons with related genera. Some sources say it could grow up to 10 metres (about the length of a large bus).14

?What did Thanatotheristes eat?

Thanatotheristes was a carnivore, so it ate meat. It likely preyed on large plant-eating dinosaurs like the horned Xenoceratops and the dome-headed Colepiocephale.54

?When did Thanatotheristes live?

Thanatotheristes lived about 80.1 to 79.5 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period. It is the oldest tyrannosaur known from Canada.14

?Where was Thanatotheristes found?

Thanatotheristes fossils were found in the Foremost Formation of Alberta, Canada. The bones were discovered along the Bow River near the town of Hays.15

?Why is it called Thanatotheristes?

Thanatotheristes means 'reaper of death' or 'death harvester' in Greek. It was named that because it was the top predator in its ecosystem.14

?Was Thanatotheristes bigger than T. rex?

No, Thanatotheristes was smaller than Tyrannosaurus rex. Thanatotheristes was about 8 to 10 metres long, while T. rex reached lengths of 12 to 13 metres.14

Mite-breker

Mite: Thanatotheristes was the biggest tyrannosaur ever.

Waarheid: It was smaller than later tyrannosaurs like Tyrannosaurus rex, only about 8 to 9 meters long.1
