Kayrasaurus had more teeth in its lower jaw than any other therizinosaur known.1
Its neck vertebrae were much longer than its back vertebrae, giving it a long neck.2
The claws on its hands were large and strongly curved, probably used for gathering plants or defense.1
The only known fossil is a nearly complete skeleton, but it is missing the legs and most of the pelvis.1
Kayrasaurus was about 1.6 times larger than its relative Beipiaosaurus, which lived at the same time and place.2
The fossil was flattened into nearly two dimensions, like a pancake, during the process of fossilization.1

Kayrasaurus was a plant-eating dinosaur. Its leaf-shaped teeth and toothless beak at the front of its jaws helped it eat plants.1
?Did Kayrasaurus have feathers?
Yes, Kayrasaurus was a feathered theropod dinosaur. Its close relatives like Beipiaosaurus are known to have feathers, so scientists think Kayrasaurus had them too.1
?When did Kayrasaurus live?
Kayrasaurus lived during the Early Cretaceous period, about 125 million years ago (Barremian, Aptian ages).1
?Where was Kayrasaurus found?
Kayrasaurus was discovered in the Yixian Formation near Beipiao in Liaoning Province, China.12
?Was Kayrasaurus bigger than Beipiaosaurus?
Yes, Kayrasaurus was about 1.6 times larger than Beipiaosaurus. Beipiaosaurus was about 2.2 metres (7.2 ft) long, while Kayrasaurus was at least 3.6 metres (12 ft).12
?Why did Kayrasaurus have long claws?
