The Natural History Museum in London has a new video on Youtube about their new dinosaur, Enigmacursor mollyborthwickae.

Meet Enigmacursor mollyborthwickae, our new dinosaur!

Now on display in our Earth Hall, Enigmacursor is a species new to science and would have roamed North America in the Late Jurassic 145-150 million years ago.

Measuring only 1.5 metres in length, this small dinosaur would have run at the feet of giants like Diplodocus (such as Dippy) and Stegosaurus (like Sophie, who is Enigmacursor’s neighbour in the Museum’s Earth Hall).

We head to the behind-the-scenes Fossil Reptiles collection to meet Professor Susannah Maidment, a dinosaur researcher at the Museum. Susannah shares what Enigmacursor would have looked like in life, how scientists understood it to be a new species and what’s so special about this incredible new discovery.
