Vitakridrinda was named by Pakistani paleontologist M. Sadiq Malkani in 2004.1

Its fossils were found in the Vitakri Member of the Pab Formation, which is about 72 to 66 million years old.1 3

A rostrum (snout) of Vitakridrinda was discovered with bite marks, punctures, and even a tooth embedded in it, showing it fought with another dinosaur.2

The snout of Vitakridrinda had pits and grooves on its surface, a feature that links it to the abelisaurid group of theropods.2

Vitakridrinda lived alongside titanosaur sauropods, and scientists think it may have scavenged or preyed on them.2

This dinosaur is part of a group called Vitakrisauridae, which includes other dinosaurs from Pakistan.1

The fossils of Vitakridrinda were found in red, maroon, and greenish-grey mudstones, which were deposited in a river environment.3

?How big was Vitakridrinda?

Nobody knows for sure because only a few bones are known. The fossils suggest it was a large-bodied theropod, but no exact size estimate has been published.5 6

?What did Vitakridrinda eat?

Vitakridrinda was a meat-eater, as shown by its sharp teeth and the fact that it is classified as a theropod. It likely hunted or scavenged titanosaurs, since its fossils were found with them.6 2

?Did Vitakridrinda fight with other dinosaurs?

Yes. Its snout has bite marks, punctures, and even a tooth embedded in it, showing it fought with another dinosaur, possibly of the same species.2 5

?Why did Vitakridrinda have pits and grooves on its snout?

The pits and grooves are a feature of abelisaurid theropods, but scientists don't know exactly what they were for. They might have been for display or for supporting a tough covering.2

?When did Vitakridrinda live?

Vitakridrinda lived during the latest Cretaceous, about 72 to 66 million years ago, in the Maastrichtian age.6

?Where was Vitakridrinda found?

Its fossils were found in the Vitakri Member of the Pab Formation in Balochistan, Pakistan.2 6

?Is Vitakridrinda a dinosaur?

Yes, Vitakridrinda is a theropod dinosaur, a meat-eating dinosaur that walked on two legs.6

?What does the name Vitakridrinda mean?

The name Vitakridrinda comes from the Vitakri Member where it was found, and 'drinda' may relate to a local word. It was named by paleontologist M. Sadiq Malkani in 2004.6
