Lufengosaurus was a long necked herbivore which lived in and around modern day China. It had a broad and deep snout with bony bumps behind its nostrils.
It is thought to have moved around on all fours, perhaps rearing up on two legs to reach high foliage.
"Lufengosaurus was 8m long. That's roughly the same as 73 gerbils."
