Today's new drawing is of a new Sauropod from India.
New Armored Sauropod from India Tharosaurus indicus
Today's new dinosaur is a bit of a game-changer. Sauropods were the biggest land animals to ever walk on Earth. This new discovery is of a somewhat early Sauropod that was found in India. There is even thought that perhaps the early prosauropods or other common ancestors originated in what is now India. It seems to have lived there when India was still part of Pangea. It or its ancestors radiated throughout the world. Then the huge Sauropods went on to evolve on every single continent.
Tharosaurus was a type of Diplodocus and is the earliest known to science. It is the first found in India. Tharosaurus indicus was about half as big as its later cousin Diplodocus. It was about 43 feet long or around 13 meters. It had a mass of around 26 metric tonnes or about 56 tons. That would be about 112,000 pounds.
