Dinosaur of the Week: Struthiomimus

Dinosaur of the Week: Struthiomimus

Struthiomimus is an ‬omnivorous ornithomimid dinosaur. Struthimimus lived in the Late Cretaceous. This dinosaur was originally thoughted to be Ornithomimus but was later discovered to be its own species. The most notable part of Struthiomimus is that the hands are longer proportionately than the arm than in other members of ornithomimid. Struthimimus was only 4.5 meters long. Around the same height as a 1.8 meter person. Struthiomimus lived in Canada and the USA. Being an Omnivore help Struthiomimus because it could switch between the two to help it survive the area it was living in.

Thanks for DK books for the image.
