Jakapil is the first armoured dinosaur ever found in Argentina's Patagonia region.1

Unlike most armoured dinosaurs, Jakapil probably walked on two legs, like the earlier dinosaur Scutellosaurus.1

Its name comes from the Tehuelche language and means 'shield bearer'.1

Jakapil lived in the Kokorkom Desert, a huge sand dune desert that covered about 826 square kilometres.1

It had a short lower jaw with a high coronoid process, giving it a strong bite for chewing plants.1

Scientists are not sure if Jakapil was a very early armoured dinosaur or an early relative of ankylosaurs.1

The only known fossil is a subadult, so adults might have been a bit bigger than 1.5 metres long.1
