3

Yinlong's name comes from the movie 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', which was filmed near where its fossils were found.21

4

Seven smooth stones, called gastroliths, were found in its ribcage. They helped grind tough plants inside its belly.2

5

Its skull was deep and wide, and the back part was very broad, but it had no horns or bony frill like later relatives.21
