... them with their front claws. They then either secure and carry or pin and consume their prey.
We think they could jump, because it was found near a Diamantinasaurus that was stuck in mud. So it probably tried to climb onto the side of that and then eat it but was injured and buried nearby.

Stomach contents, which are classified as trace fossils, are extremely rare in dinosaurs & are usually found in theropods. So this find of stomach contents in a sauropod (Diamantinasaurus) is among the rarest of the rare, giving us a look at this dinosaur's last meal. 🧪🦕 #ichnology
New paper in @currentbiology.bsky.social led by Steve Poropat @curtinuniversity.bsky.social ‪in which we present the first ever direct evidence of sauropod dinosaur feeding, based on stomach contents of the Australian titanosaur Diamantinasaurus: www.cell.com/current-biol... @es-ucl.bsky.social

Next we move on to the Sauropods.
These were technically the first big offshoot of the ceratopsians. You can see the bodies are stretched out versions of theirs.

@paleontologizing.bsky.social - new fossils from down here has actual gut content and skin impressions for a sauropod. We have confirmation on what and how they ate.

In 2009 the fossils were formally named Australovenator and Diamantinasaurus by paleontologist Scott Hocknull et al of the Queensland Museum

The fossil specimens were nicknamed Banjo and Matilda respectively after the song Waltzing Matilda written 100 years before in Winton by Banjo Paterson.

In 2021, Scott A. Hocknull et al named the species Australotitan Cooperensis.

In 2024, S. L. Beeston et al, reviewed the relationships of Diamantinasaurs and found Australotitan was closely related to Diamantinasaurus.

I like my dinos like I like my dogs: long.

This gal is a sauropod, and probably was vegetarian. About 50+ feet long, & 25 tons.

First reported sauropod fossil stomach contents show the dinosaurs were 'bulk feeders' of plants www.abc.net.au/news/science...
Gut fossil from Aussie dinosaur 'Judy' first to show what sauropods ate
The first reported fossilised stomach contents from a sauropod, belonging to a Diamantinasaurus that lived 95 million years ago, has confirmed a long-held theory of herbivorous behaviour.
