Anzu
Anzu was a bird-like dinosaur that lived about 68 to 66 million years ago. It had feathers, a toothless beak, and a tall crest on its head. Scientists nicknamed it the 'chicken from hell' because it looked like a giant, scary chicken!1

Anzu had feathers on its arms and tail, making it look like a big flightless bird.1
Its forelimbs ended in large, sharp claws, unlike modern birds.1
Two of the Anzu skeletons show injuries: one had a broken and healed rib, and another had an arthritic toe bone.1
Anzu lived at the same time as Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops.1
The fossils were found in the Hell Creek Formation, which is famous for many dinosaur fossils.1
Anzu belongs to a group called oviraptorosaurs, which are closely related to birds.1

Anzu was about 3.5 to 3.75 metres (11.5 to 12.3 feet) long, up to 1.5 metres (4.9 feet) tall at the hip, and weighed 200 to 300 kilograms (440 to 660 pounds).21
?What did Anzu eat?
Anzu was probably an omnivore or herbivore, eating plants, small animals, and possibly eggs. Its beak was toothless but not as strong as in some Asian relatives.2
