Qantassaurus

Qantassaurus is a genus of small herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur that lived during the Early Cretaceous period, about 125 million years ago. It is known from a single partial skeleton that was discovered in Australia. The specimen consists of a partial skull, parts of the spine, and some limb bones. Qantassaurus was a bipedal animal with a small head and a long neck. It had sharp, curved claws on its hands and feet, which it may have used for defense or for digging up plants to eat. Qantassaurus probably had a beak-like structure at the front of its mouth for biting off plant material, and its teeth were adapted for grinding and crushing vegetation. It is thought to have been a relatively small dinosaur, with an estimated length of about 2.5 meters (8.2 feet). Qantassaurus is classified as an ornithopod, a group of dinosaurs that includes the duck-billed hadrosaurs and the iguanodonts.
