Aucasaurus had four bones in its hand, but only two fingers with no claws.2

Its tail bones suggest it had strong tail muscles and could run fast.2

The skull of the only known skeleton is damaged, which might mean it got into a fight before it died.2

Two of its tail vertebrae were fused together from birth, a condition called block vertebrae. This is the earliest known example of this birth defect in a meat-eating dinosaur.2

Aucasaurus was smaller than its relative Carnotaurus, but its arms were even more reduced.2
