izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

1

Mussaurus babies were only 20 cm (7.9 in) long and weighed about as much as a chicken egg.13

2

As it grew, Mussaurus changed from walking on all fours to walking on two legs.1

3

Scientists found over 100 eggs and 80 skeletons of Mussaurus together, showing they lived in herds.1

4

This dinosaur lived about 193 million years ago, during the Early Jurassic period.2

5

Adult Mussaurus could reach 8 metres (26 ft) long and weigh up to 1.6 metric tons (1.8 short tons).1

6

Mussaurus is one of the earliest dinosaurs known to have complex social behavior, like living in groups.1
