1

Fosterovenator is known from only a few leg bones: a shin bone (tibia) with an ankle bone (astragalus) attached, and a calf bone (fibula).1

2

The first fossils of Fosterovenator were discovered in 1879 by Arthur Lakes during the famous 'Bone Wars' between paleontologists Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope.1

3

The shin bone belonged to a juvenile, but the calf bone came from a much larger adult, measuring 27.5 cm (10.8 inches) long.1

4

Fosterovenator lived alongside other dinosaurs like Allosaurus, Torvosaurus, Camarasaurus, Diplodocus, and Stegosaurus.1

5

The name Fosterovenator honors paleontologist John R. Foster, and 'venator' means 'hunter' in Latin.1

6

Some scientists question whether the adult calf bone really belongs to Fosterovenator, so it might be from a different dinosaur.1

Fosterovenator was named in 2014 by researcher Sebastian G. Dalman, based on fossils found in 1879 at Como Bluff, Wyoming. The type specimen is a nearly complete right shin bone (tibia) with an attached ankle bone, probably from a juvenile.13

Scientists are not sure if the adult calf bone (fibula) assigned to Fosterovenator really belongs to this dinosaur or to a different species.1
