100-million-year-old fossils have been found in the Indian state of Meghalaya and are believed to have belonged to sauropod dinosaurs. Researchers from the Geological Survey of India’s (GSI) Palaeontology division found the bones in the West Khasi Hills District.
The experts are confident that the fossils belonged to sauropod dinosaurs with a Titanosaurian origin. If they are correct, this would be first proof that these types of dinosaurs inhabited that area and the fifth Indian state to have found evidence of sauropod bones with a Titanosaurian origin. Sauropods have smaller heads, long necks, long tails, and big pillar-like legs.
