Datos curiosos
Juravenator is known from a single, nearly complete skeleton of a juvenile, making it one of the best-preserved predatory dinosaurs from Europe.21
Unlike many other small theropods from the same time, Juravenator did not have feathers or feather-like structures on its tail.21
Scientists think Juravenator may have been nocturnal, based on the shape of its eye bones.1
In 2020, researchers found tiny round structures on the sides of Juravenator's tail that might have been sensory organs, like those on crocodile scales.1
The only known Juravenator fossil was found in a lagoon deposit, suggesting it may have drowned after being washed into the water.1
