Meet Silesaurus in 3D Dinopedia!
Start a discussion
Named after Silesia in Poland, Silesaurus roamed the Late Triassic about 230 Mya. At 2.3 m long with a light build and long legs, it was a nimble, fast runner.
Instead of blade-like teeth, it had small serrated teeth and a beak at the jaw tip—perfect for snatching insects. Coprolite studies confirmed beetle remains in its diet, though soft plants may also have been on the menu.
Silesaurus sheds light on dinosaur-like reptile evolution and Triassic ecosystems. In the new 3D Dinopedia model, inspect its skull, tooth structure, and agile hunting gait in a virtual ancient landscape.
