Saichania — size comparison — facts and sources

Saichania was an armoured dinosaur from Mongolia. Its broad head bore bony ornaments, and a short neck and powerful limbs supported its low body. The reconstructed tail ends in a club; its details are less certain than the preserved front skeleton.

Teresa Maryańska’s description documents complex structures inside the nasal cavities, among other features. Their functions remain open to interpretation. Saichania ate plants.
