酷東西

趣味知識

Baurutitan was one of the first four sauropod dinosaurs ever described from Brazil.1

Its fossils were discovered in 1957 by paleontologist Llewellyn Ivor Price, but the dinosaur was not named until 2005.1

The name Baurutitan comes from the Bauru Group of rocks where it was found, plus 'titan' from Greek mythology.1

Scientists think Baurutitan might be the same animal as another dinosaur called Trigonosaurus.2

Baurutitan lived during the Maastrichtian age, about 72 to 66 million years ago.4

The only known fossils of Baurutitan are a series of tail bones and a hip bone.1
