Ceratocaudia was a small, plant-eating sauropod dinosaur that lived in what is now India during the Jurassic Period. It had a horn-like crest on its tail bones, and scientists think it might have used its tail to scare away predators.1

Ebyewuunyisa

1

Ceratocaudia is one of the smallest known macronarian sauropods, measuring only about 7 metres (23 feet) long.1

2

The horn-like crest on its tail vertebrae gave the dinosaur its name, meaning 'horned tail'.1

3

Scientists think Ceratocaudia might have been a dwarf species because the only known skeleton is from an old individual but is still very small.13

4

The holotype skeleton includes neck bones, tail bones, an ulna, thighbones, shinbones, and even finger and toe bones.1

5

Ceratocaudia lived in an estuary environment alongside petrified wood, clams, and a much larger sauropod that was about 20 metres long.1

6

A muscle reconstruction of the tail suggests Ceratocaudia could swing it as a mild deterrent against predators.13

Scientists are not sure if Ceratocaudia was a true dwarf species or just a small adult, and they debate its exact place on the sauropod family tree.13
