Talos

Igama lithetha: “mythological Greek giant who protected Crete, also a play on the word talon”1

Yayitya: InyamaIiraptaiCretaceous yamva

Talos was a small, feathered dinosaur that lived about 76 million years ago. It was a fast runner with a big claw on its foot, and scientists think it was one of the closest dinosaur relatives of birds.1

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Talos is known from a partial skeleton that includes parts of the spine, arms, hips, and legs.1

The fossil of Talos shows a healed injury on one of its foot bones, possibly from a fight or a struggle with prey.1

Talos was a troodontid, a group of dinosaurs known for having big brains and being very bird-like.1

It lived alongside other unique dinosaurs like the horned Utahceratops and the tyrannosaur Teratophoneus.1

Scientists think Talos was about 2 metres long and weighed around 38 kilograms, about as heavy as a large dog.1

The name Talos also sounds like 'talon' because of the big, hooked claw on its second toe.1

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

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Talos
Inikwe igama ngu:: Zanno et al. 20113
Iqela: Iirapta
Usapho / iclade: Troodontidae3
Ukuhlelwa: Theropoda > Troodontidae3
Ubudala bamatye: 84 ukuya ku-72 izigidi zeminyaka (Campanian)3
Izakhiwo zamatye: Kaiparowits3
Amazwe: iUSA3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ukufunyanwa: Talos was named in 2011 by a team led by Lindsay Zanno. The skeleton was found in the Kaiparowits Formation in Utah, USA, in an area called 'The Blues'.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure exactly how many different kinds of troodontids lived in North America, because their fossils are rare and often incomplete.1
