Time to reveal the answer to this week's quiz question. You were asked: True or false? T-Rex could swim
Answer: True. New evidence suggests that T-Rex was a surprisingly good swimmer. Despite its weight, hollow bones would have helped it to float, and the powerful legs and tail would have been used to propel it through the water. Today's dino: Name: YizhousaurusPronunciation: Yee-zoo-sore-usMeaning of name: "Yizhou lizard", after the Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Region of Yunnan Province, southwestern China, where its fossils were discovered.Species: Y. sunaeSize: Estimated to have measured around 7 metres long, 2.5 metres tall and weighing 1.5 metric tonnes.Family: UncertainDiet: HerbivoreFirst fossils found: Known only from an almost complete skull with lower jaw and a partial skeleton discovered in the Lufeng Formation of Yunnan Province, southwestern China, in 2002. Named by palaeontologists Sankar Chatterjee, Qian-Nan Zhang, Hai-Lu You and Tao Wang in 2018.Lived: 199.5 to 192.9 million years ago during the Sinemurian stage of the Early Jurassic in what is now southwestern China.

T Rex must have been a formidable adversary, both on land and in water.

T Rex must have been a formidable adversary, both on land and in water. Despite being a predator itself, T-Rex would have been vulnerable to attack from mosasaurs and giant crocodiles whilst swimming in the prehistoric lakes and oceans. |
