Ikqaumishan was a huge, long-necked plant-eater that stomped around what is now Pakistan and India near the very end of the dinosaur age. It belonged to a group called titanosaurs, which included some of the biggest land animals ever. It probably used its long neck to munch leaves high in trees.21

Datos curiosos

1

Ikqaumishan is known from a partial upper arm bone called a humerus, which was found in Pakistan.2

2

It lived about 72 to 66 million years ago, during the Maastrichtian age, which is the very last part of the dinosaur era.2

3

Its upper arm bone had a special ridge that was straight and set inward, which is different from many other titanosaurs.1

4

The place where it was found was near the equator about 9 degrees south, so it lived in a warm, tropical area.1

5

Ikqaumishan is one of several new titanosaurs described from Pakistan in 2023, showing that this region had many giant plant-eaters.1

6

Its fossils were found in rocks that formed in a river environment, so it probably walked along ancient floodplains.2
