Oplosaurus was a huge, long-necked plant-eater that lived on the Isle of Wight during the Early Cretaceous. It is known from just one big tooth, but that tooth tells us it was a giant, like a Brachiosaurus. Imagine a gentle giant munching on leaves with a tooth as big as your hand!12

Mfundo zosangalatsa

1

Oplosaurus is known only from a single tooth, found in the 1850s. This tooth is 85 mm (3.35 inches) tall, about as long as a credit card.12

2

The tooth looks very similar to a Brachiosaurus tooth, so scientists think Oplosaurus was a giant sauropod, maybe 25 metres (82 feet) long.12

3

Its name means 'armed lizard' or 'weapon lizard', probably because the tooth looked like a weapon. The species name armatus also means 'armed' in Latin.1

4

Some scientists think Oplosaurus might have been a turiasaur, a group of primitive sauropods with heart-shaped teeth. Others place it in the Camarasauridae family.1

5

The tooth has a pointed tip and wear facets from grinding plants. This shows Oplosaurus was a plant-eater that chewed its food.1

6

Oplosaurus lived on the Isle of Wight when it was a low plain with rivers and lakes. The climate was warm and humid, like a subtropical forest.1

7

Because only one tooth has been found, Oplosaurus is a 'tooth taxon'. Scientists are not sure if it is a valid genus or if the tooth belongs to another dinosaur like Pelorosaurus.12

Mafunso ofunsidwa kwambiri okhudza Oplosaurus

?How big was Oplosaurus?

About 25 metres (82 feet) long, based on its tooth being as big as a Brachiosaurus tooth.12

?What did Oplosaurus eat?

It was a plant-eater. Its tooth has wear facets from grinding tough vegetation.12

?Where was Oplosaurus found?

On the Isle of Wight, England, in the Wessex Formation near Brighstone Bay.12

?Is Oplosaurus a dinosaur?

Yes, it is a sauropod dinosaur, a long-necked plant-eater from the Early Cretaceous.13

Wothetsa nthano zabodza

Nthano: Oplosaurus was an armoured dinosaur like Hylaeosaurus.

Zoona: Scientists once thought the tooth belonged to an armoured dinosaur because it was sharp, but Oplosaurus is now considered a long-necked sauropod, not an armoured dinosaur.1
