<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="calidris-pacis"></dinofyi-dinosaur>† Calidris pacis is an extinct sandpiper of the genus Calidris from Pleistocene deposits in the United States. As a member of the family Scolopacidae, it was a carnivorous shorebird feeding on invertebrates along wetland and coastal margins. The species name 'pacis' suggests a possible Pacific coastal association. It contributes to the record of Pleistocene shorebird diversity in North America and the understanding of historical Calidris distribution before modern climatic shifts.
Diet & Feeding
Calidris pacis was a meat-eating predator. Carnivorous dinosaurs were active hunters or scavengers, equipped with sharp teeth and claws for catching and consuming prey. They occupied the top of the food chain in their ecosystems.
