Fatgs divertents

1

Kayrasaurus had more teeth in its lower jaw than any other therizinosaur known.1

2

Its neck vertebrae were much longer than its back vertebrae, giving it a long neck.2

3

The claws on its hands were large and strongly curved, probably used for gathering plants or defense.1

4

The only known fossil is a nearly complete skeleton, but it is missing the legs and most of the pelvis.1

5

Kayrasaurus was about 1.6 times larger than its relative Beipiaosaurus, which lived at the same time and place.2

6

The fossil was flattened into nearly two dimensions, like a pancake, during the process of fossilization.1
