izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Sonorasaurus is one of the youngest brachiosaurid sauropods ever found in North America.2

It lived in a dry, woodland environment with seasonal rainfall, not a swamp or coast.2

The only known Sonorasaurus fossil shows that it grew slowly and unevenly, unlike many other sauropods.2

Sonorasaurus was about one third the size of its relative Brachiosaurus.1

It was named after the Sonora River in the Sonoran Desert, where its fossils were first found.1

On April 10, 2018, Sonorasaurus became the official state dinosaur of Arizona.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Sonorasaurus — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Sonorasaurus 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: Sonorasaurus

?How big was Sonorasaurus?

About 15 metres (49 feet) long, 8 metres (26 feet) tall, and weighed 10 metric tons (11 short tons). That is about half the size of Brachiosaurus.1 3

?When did Sonorasaurus live?

It lived during the Early to Late Cretaceous, about 112 to 93 million years ago.1

?What did Sonorasaurus eat?

It was a plant-eater that ate trees and other vegetation.3

?Where was Sonorasaurus found?

Its fossils were found in southern Arizona, USA, in the Sonoran Desert near the Sonora River.1

?Is Sonorasaurus a dinosaur?

Yes, it is a brachiosaurid sauropod dinosaur.1

?Why is Sonorasaurus the state dinosaur of Arizona?

It was declared the official state dinosaur of Arizona on April 10, 2018, because its fossils were found there.1 3

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Some people thought Sonorasaurus might be a hadrosaur (duck-billed dinosaur) or a therizinosaur.

Inyaniso: Scientists now agree it is a brachiosaurid sauropod, a long-necked plant-eater.1

Igama lenzululwazi: Sonorasaurus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Ratkevich 19984
Iqela: Iintamo-nde
Usapho / iclade: Brachiosauridae4
Ukuhlelwa: Sauropodomorpha > Sauropoda > Macronaria4
Ubudala bamatye: 106 ukuya ku-94 izigidi zeminyaka (Albian / Cenomanian)4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Turney Ranch4
Amazwe: iUSA4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: Sonorasaurus was discovered in November 1994 by geology student Richard Thompson in the Whetstone Mountains of Arizona. It was named and described by paleontologist Ronald Paul Ratkevich in 1998.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are still debating exactly how Sonorasaurus is related to other brachiosaurids, and more fossils are needed to be sure.2
