Datos curiosos
Berthasaura is the first toothless meat-eating dinosaur relative found in Brazil.1
Its skeleton was nearly complete, making it the most complete non-bird dinosaur from the Brazilian Cretaceous.1
Berthasaura lived about 121 to 72 million years ago, during the Cretaceous Period.2
It had a short, deep jaw and a downturned beak, similar to some plant-eating dinosaurs.1
Even though it was young when it died, Berthasaura already had no teeth, so it probably never grew any.1
Berthasaura is a noasaurid, a group of small, lightly built dinosaurs that are relatives of the bigger abelisaurids.1
