Titanosaurimanus nana

† Titanosaurimanus nana is a small-sized titanosaur forefoot track ichnospecies from Croatia, representing the prints of a juvenile or miniaturized titanosaur. Its small size contrasts with the typically gigantic titanosaurs, suggesting diverse size classes existed.

Diet & Feeding

Herbivore

Titanosaurimanus nana was a plant-eating dinosaur. Herbivores typically fed on ferns, cycads, conifers, and other vegetation available during their era. Many herbivorous dinosaurs developed specialized teeth and digestive systems for processing tough plant material.

Time Period

Cretaceous Early Mesozoic Era

Titanosaurimanus nana lived during the Cretaceous Early period of the Mesozoic Era, approximately 145,0 to 100,5 million years ago.

The Cretaceous saw continued dinosaur evolution with the rise of ornithopods and early ceratopsians. Flowering plants first appeared and began to transform terrestrial ecosystems. Spinosaurus and other large theropods lived during this time.
