Dinosaurs, 250-0.65 billion years ago in the Mesozoic Era, the climate is warm and humid, the vegetation is luxuriant, dinosaurs have achieved unprecedented development, so it is also known as the "Age of Dinosaurs", but the Age of Dinosaurs is not a unified world, when dinosaurs gradually dominated the land, other kinds of reptiles successfully dominated the ocean and the sky, and fish, amphibians, early birds and mammals and a large number of invertebrates also flourished in the respective ecological fields of sea, land and space. Biological diversity maintained the ecological balance of the Mesozoic Era.
Dinosaurs relied on other creatures to dominate the earth for more than 100 million years. It reproduces by laying eggs.
This is a group of equal-sized, bipedal early dinosaur footprints, including 10 deep oval footprints. It is one of the first three dinosaur footprints found in China, making up for the lack of fossil triassic dinosaur bones that have not been found in China. It is of great scientific value for the study of the distribution and evolution of dinosaurs in China in the late Triassic period.
Yongchuan Dragon was a large carnivorous dinosaur. It is about 11 meters long, 2.85 meters high when standing, and has a maximum speed of 50 km/h. The neck is short, the body is not long, but the tail is very long, when standing, it can be used to support the body, and when running, the tail should be cocked as a balancer. The forelimbs are very flexible, with curved and pointed claws on the fingers, and the hind limbs are long and thick, and they also have three toes.
Mamenxi dragon is one of the largest sauropod dinosaurs found in China, and its fossils have been found at the Port of Mamingxi in Yibin City, which has been scientifically identified as a sauropod order. The total length of this genus is about 22 meters, and the body height is nearly 7 meters. Its neck is particularly long, equivalent to half the length of the body, not only making up the length of each cervical vertebrae of the neck, but also as many as 19 cervical vertebrae, which is the largest of the sauropods. The neck is also the longest of all dinosaurs (the longest neck can reach 12.1 meters). Compared with the cervical spine, there are relatively few dorsal, posterior and caudal vertebrae.
