Minmi was an armored herbivore (plant-eater)
that lived in Australia
during the early
Cretaceous period,
between about 119 and 113 million years ago.
Minmi was about 6½ feet (2 meters) long, and stood about
3 feet (1 meter) tall at the shoulder. Its body, head and tail
were protected by a variety of types of bony armor. Its hind
legs were longer than its front limbs, and from
fossilized
tracks, scientists believe that Minmi was relatively slow moving.
"Minmi" is named after the Minmi Crossing in Australia.
Minmi was a member of the Ornithischia ("bird-hipped") order of dinosaurs. What this means, is that although Minmi was not closely related to birds, it did have similarly shaped pelvic bones.
Minmi lived between about 119 million years ago and 113 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period.
