Fossil remains for this Dinosaur have been found in Asia
Xuanhanosaurus was a
medium-sized predator
that lived in China
during the Jurassic
Period. It had very long
arms for a theropod and
it may have walked on
all four legs. This
would have made it very
unusual for a
meat-eating dinosaur.
Only a few bones have
been found so it has
been difficult for
scientists to know
exactly what this
dinosaur really looked
like. |
