酷東西

趣味知識

Barsboldia had very long, club-like neural spines on its front tail bones, which made its tail heavier than most other duck-billed dinosaurs.1

Its tail was held horizontally off the ground while it walked, like a balancing pole.2

Barsboldia is known from only one incomplete skeleton, found by a Polish-Mongolian expedition in 1970.2

It was first thought to be a different dinosaur called Saurolophus angustirostris, but later scientists realized it was a new species.2

Barsboldia lived about 72 to 66 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.4
