Nigersaurus Facts

Here is a summary of some of the key facts about Nigersaurus: Nigersaurus was a genus of dinosaur. "Nigersaurus" means "Niger lizard" ((it was discovered in the country of Niger). Nigersaurus was a member of the Saurischia ("lizard-hipped") order of dinosaurs. What this means, is that although Nigersaurus was not closely related to lizards, it did have similarly shaped pelvic bones. Nigersaurus was a Sauropod - a member of a group of related large quadrupedal herbivorous (plant-eating) dinosaur with long necks. Nigersaurus lived between about 119 million years ago and 99 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period. Nigersaurus lived in Africa. Nigersaurus was a herbivore (plant-eater). Nigersaurus had a very unusual mouth for a Sauropod - it had a wide intake like a vacuum cleaner (wider than the rest of its skull), and after taking in the food, it chewed it using hundreds small sharp teeth. Nigersaurus was usually about 30 feet (9 meters) long. Nigersaurus weighed about 4 tons.
