Eoraptor Lunensis (‘Dawn Plunderer of the Valley of the Moon’)
Lived: The late Triassic period.
Size: 1 meter and 10 kilograms.
About:
Eoraptor is a likely close ancestor of both theropods (like the T-rex!) and Sauropodomorphs (like Plateosaurus!), but scientists still debate as to which group better fits this tiny omnivore. Unlike it’s predatory descendants, it lacks a sliding joint in its lower jaw and it possesses both carnivore-type and herbivore-type teeth. It would use its claws and teeth to maul its prey.
