趣味知識

Kelumapusaura is known from a bonebed containing many individuals, suggesting it lived in groups.1

Its name comes from the Mapudungun word for 'red earth', because the fossils were found in red-coloured rocks.1

This dinosaur lived during the very end of the Cretaceous Period, about 72 to 66 million years ago.2

Kelumapusaura belonged to a group of South American duck-billed dinosaurs called Austrokritosauria.1

It shared its home with titanosaurs, abelisaurids, and other dinosaurs in the Allen Formation.1
