Aardonyx — size comparison — facts and sources

Aardonyx was a herbivorous southern African sauropodomorph. Finds represent two young animals. A long neck reached foliage, while the head remained narrower than in later giants.

Bones indicate possible movement on the hindlimbs and on all fours. The illustrated posture is one interpretation of this range. Known individuals were still growing, so their proportions need not represent adults.
