Datos curiosos

1

Mbiresaurus is the oldest definitive dinosaur ever found in Africa, dating back to the Carnian stage about 235 million years ago.1

2

Its nearly complete skeleton was found in Zimbabwe, making it one of the most complete early dinosaur skeletons from Africa.1

3

Mbiresaurus lived in a time when dinosaurs were not yet spread across the whole world. Climate belts, not continents, controlled where they could live.1

4

The rocks where Mbiresaurus was found are part of the Pebbly Arkose Formation, which is about 209 million years old or older.2

5

Mbiresaurus was a sauropodomorph, a group of long-necked dinosaurs that later included giants like Brachiosaurus.6
