rdfs:comment | - Zephyrosaurus is a small ornithopod dinosaur. At about the size of an Alaskan dog, it could run up to 60 kilometers per hour.
- Zephyrosaurus, meaning 'westward wind lizard', was found by Hans-Dieter Sues and C.R.Schaff in 1980 in the Lower Cretaceous Cloverly Formation of Montana.
- Zephyrosaurus is still very incompletely known. Among other distinctive characteristics, it had a steep face, a raised knob on the upper jaw, and a larger knob on the cheekbone. Some of the bones may have allowed movement within the skull (cranial kinesis) as well. Like other hypsilophodonts, it had beak teeth.
