Zanabazar

Il num vul dir: “named after the Mongolian Buddhist monk and scholar Zanabazar”1

Zanabazar was a smart, bird-like dinosaur that lived in what is now Mongolia. It had a big brain for its size and sharp claws for hunting. This troodontid was one of the largest of its kind, with a skull as long as a school ruler!2 1

Zanabazar's skull was 272 mm long, making it the largest known troodontid skull.2

It lived during the Maastrichtian age, about 72 to 66 million years ago, right before the dinosaurs went extinct.2

Zanabazar was originally named Saurornithoides junior in 1974, but was given its own genus in 2009.2 1

Its brain was smaller than that of its relative Troodon, even though Zanabazar was bigger.1

Zanabazar had a special hole in its skull called a posttemporal fenestra, which helped lighten the head.2

It laid eggs, like all troodontids, and probably took care of its babies.2

Chatschader da mitus

Mitus: Some people think Zanabazar was a dromaeosaur like Velociraptor.

Vardad: Zanabazar is actually a troodontid, a different group of bird-like dinosaurs that were probably smarter and had bigger brains.2
