Australovenator

Australovenator was about 6 metres long and weighed between 310 and 500 kilograms.1

Australovenator was a meat-eater that likely hunted other dinosaurs and animals. Its fossils were found with bones of sauropods, crocodiles, turtles, and fish.4

Scientists think Australovenator could run up to 48 km/h, which is why it is sometimes called the cheetah of its time.1

The sources do not mention feathers on Australovenator. It is not known for sure, but many theropod dinosaurs had feathers, so it is possible.1

Australovenator lived about 95 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous period, in the Cenomanian stage.1

Its fossils were discovered in the Winton Formation in Queensland, Australia, at a site called the 'Matilda Site' near Elderslie Station.1

Yes, Australovenator is a dinosaur. It is a theropod dinosaur, a group of meat-eating dinosaurs that walked on two legs.1

Australovenator had 19 teeth on each side of its lower jaw, for a total of at least 38 teeth in its lower jaws. It also had more teeth in its upper jaw, but the skull is not known.1
