At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
Several fossils have been found in South America that aided scientists to create the first holotype. These terrestrial creatures were herbivorous in nature and inhabited forests or grasslands. They are from the Middle Jurassic period.
The term 'Patagosaurus' is pronounced as 'Pat-ah-goe-sore-us'.
Patagosaurus dinosaurs were a group of Sauropods.
These sauropods are assumed to have inhabited the Earth during the Middle Jurassic period.
The exact time of extinction of this dinosaur is yet to be uncovered.
Fossils of this dinosaur were discovered in Argentina.
Being a herbivore by nature, this terrestrial creature preferred living in forests and grasslands. It is not known how territorial these dinosaurs were.
They perhaps lived alongside the Condorraptor, the Piatnitzkysaurus, and the Volkheimeria. It is not certain if they lived in herds.
The lifespan of this dinosaur cannot be estimated due to a lack of scientific data.
Being oviparous in nature, these dinosaurs reproduced by laying eggs.
There have not been many discoveries. However, from specimens available, some of its possible features included an elongated neck and tail with a small head. They probably weren't very colorful or slimy.
It is not known how many bones they possessed.
Although the communication pattern of this dinosaur is yet to be uncovered, it can be assumed that it interacted through visual cues.
The average length of an adult Patagosaurus is estimated to have been 49-60 ft (15-18 m).
Being a Sauropod, this dinosaur was probably a slow creature.
The weight of a Patagosaurus is estimated to have been 8.7 ton (7,900 kg).
Male and female counterparts of this species can be simply referred to as male or female.
As this dinosaur laid eggs, its babies can be called hatchlings.
The exact level of aggression that this dinosaur showed cannot be specified due to a lack of sufficient data. It is also unknown if it was greedy or if it had the tendency to bite.
José Bonaparte is credited for rendering the name to this Sauropod in 1979.
