Ornithopsis was a huge, long-necked plant-eater that stomped through England and Germany during the Early Cretaceous. Its name means 'bird-likeness' because its back bones were hollow and filled with air sacs, just like birds have today.1

Dintlha tse di monate

1

Ornithopsis was one of the first dinosaurs whose bones were recognized as having air sacs, like modern birds and pterosaurs.1

2

The only known species is Ornithopsis hulkei, named after the scientist John Whitaker Hulke.1

3

Its back bones were very light because they were filled with big cavities called camellae.1

4

Scientists think Ornithopsis was about 16 to 18 metres long, as long as two school buses.1

5

A possible German fossil of Ornithopsis came from a slightly smaller individual.1

6

Ornithopsis belongs to a group of sauropods called Titanosauriformes, which includes some of the biggest land animals ever.1

Mothubi wa ditlhamane

Tlhamane: Ornithopsis was a flying animal like a pterosaur.

Boammaaruri: Ornithopsis was a sauropod dinosaur that walked on land. Its name 'bird-likeness' refers to its air-filled bones, not to flying.1

Harry Govier Seeley named Ornithopsis in 1870 based on two vertebrae from the Isle of Wight, England. He thought it was a creature between pterosaurs and birds, but later scientists showed it was a sauropod dinosaur.1
Go sa ntse go ganetsanwa
Scientists are not sure if the German fossil really belongs to Ornithopsis because it is poorly preserved.1
