<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="aphelocoma-insularis"></dinofyi-dinosaur>†Aphelocoma insularis (Island Scrub-Jay) is a living endemic corvid restricted to Santa Cruz Island, California. An omnivore roughly 30cm in length, it feeds on acorns, insects, lizards, and small vertebrates. Subfossil specimens document its prehistoric distribution across Channel Islands. With a population under 2,000 individuals, it is considered vulnerable due to limited island habitat.
Diet & Feeding
Aphelocoma insularis had a varied diet that included both plants and animals. Omnivorous dinosaurs were versatile feeders, able to exploit multiple food sources, which gave them an advantage in changing environments.
