About Coelophysis
In 1940 thousands of Coelophysis'' bones were discovered in a small area. These animals probably all died together, perhaps in a flash flood, or other natural disaster.
Coelophysis'' light weight body and long neck made it an excellent hunter. This predator was a quick and agile creature, able to dart from side to side as it chased its prey, or escaped from its enemies.
Coelophysis shares many features with early birds, including hollow bones, and beak like mouth.
