Prehistoric Wetland Habitats of Deinocheirus
A gentle Deinocheirus rests by a quiet wetland pond near a basket filled with gathered reeds. Broad water lily leaves float on the calm water surface, capturing the tranquil environment of prehistoric river basins.
Unique Characteristics of Deinocheirus
Deinocheirus was an unusual giant ornithomimosaur that lived in Asia during the Late Cretaceous period. Its name translates to "horrible hand" because paleontologists first discovered giant arm bones with sharp, curved claws. Despite its formidable arms, fossil evidence shows it was an herbivore or omnivore that swallowed small stones called gastroliths to grind up tough aquatic plants in its stomach.
