Yayitya: InyamaIzirhubuluzi zaselwandleiTriassic yamva ukuya ku-iCretaceous yamvaNgokwenene ayisiyo dayinaso

Placochelys was a marine reptile that looked a lot like a sea turtle, but it wasn't a turtle. It swam in warm seas during the Triassic Period, using its paddle-like limbs to glide through the water.1

Inyani emnandi: esi sirhubuluzi saselwandle sasiqubha ngelixa iidayinaso zazihamba emhlabeni. Wonke umntu uzibiza ngokuba ziidayinaso, kodwa zazilisebe elahlukileyo lezirhubuluzi.

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Placochelys had a flat, turtle-like shell made of knobbly plates, but it was not a turtle. It was a type of reptile called a placodont.1

Its skull was compact and triangular, with a beak and powerful jaw muscles for crushing food.1

Unlike modern sea turtles, Placochelys still had visible toes on its paddle-shaped limbs, and it had a short tail.1

Placochelys lived about 221 to 205 million years ago, during the Late Triassic Period.1

It had only two pairs of teeth on the roof of its mouth: a large pair at the back and a small pair near the front.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Placochelys — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Placochelys esenokuba wayekhangeleka ngayo, wenziwe yikhompyutha ngokwento eyaziwa zizazinzulu. Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.

ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Placochelys

?How big was Placochelys?

About 90 centimetres (3 feet) long.1 3

?What did Placochelys eat?

Shellfish and other hard-shelled prey. It used its broad, crushing teeth on the roof of its mouth to break them open.1 3

?Could Placochelys walk on land?

It may have occasionally ventured onto land, because its paddle-shaped limbs still had visible toes, unlike modern sea turtles.3

?When did Placochelys go extinct?

It lived during the Late Triassic Period, from about 221 to 205 million years ago, and died out by the end of the Triassic.1

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Placochelys was a sea turtle.

Inyaniso: Placochelys looked like a sea turtle, but it was a different kind of marine reptile called a placodont. It was not closely related to modern turtles.1
