Xiangyunloong was a big, plant-eating dinosaur that lived in what is now China. It had a short neck but a very long and strong tail, which helped it balance its heavy body. This dinosaur shows that not all early long-necked dinosaurs had long necks!2

Ebyewuunyisa

1

Xiangyunloong had a short neck but a very long and powerful tail, which is unusual for early sauropodomorphs.2

2

Its tail was so strong that it could act as a counterbalance, helping the dinosaur stand on two legs to feed.2

3

Scientists think Xiangyunloong represents an early stage of gigantism, or getting very big, in sauropodomorphs.2

4

Xiangyunloong lived about 200 million years ago during the Early Jurassic period.4

5

The fossil of Xiangyunloong was found about 200 kilometers west of the famous Lufeng dinosaur fossil sites in China.2

6

Xiangyunloong is known from a partial skeleton that includes neck bones, back bones, tail bones, and hip bones.2

Ebibuuzo ebisinga okubuuzibwa ku Xiangyunloong

?How big was Xiangyunloong?

About 9 to 10 metres long, making it one of the largest early sauropodomorph dinosaurs from China.12

?Did Xiangyunloong have a long neck?

No, it had a short neck, which is unusual for early sauropodomorphs. Instead, it had a very long and strong tail.23

?What did Xiangyunloong eat?

It was a plant eating dinosaur, like other sauropodomorphs.1

?Could Xiangyunloong walk on two legs?

Yes, its strong tail helped it balance on its hind legs to reach food, even though it had a short neck.23

Omumenyi w'enfumo

Enfumo: Many people think all early sauropodomorphs had long necks like later sauropods.

Amazima: Xiangyunloong had a short neck and a long, strong tail, showing that early sauropodomorphs had different body shapes.2

Kikyakubaganyizibwako ebirowoozo
Scientists are still debating whether Xiangyunloong represents a new evolutionary path where the tail, not the neck, became long and strong.2
