Cryolophosaurus — size comparison — facts and sources

Cryolophosaurus was a bipedal predator of Early Jurassic Antarctica. It had a distinctive curved head crest and sharp teeth. The continent's climate then supported vegetation and numerous terrestrial animals.

Remains from the Transantarctic Mountains were described in the nineteen-nineties. It was Antarctica's first formally named dinosaur. Only part of the skeleton is known, leaving precise prey composition and crest function uncertain.
