Rauisuchians were a group of carnivorous (meat-eating)
archosaurs that lived during the
Triassic period.
Rauisuchians were generally large in size - lengths of 13 to 20 feet (4 to 6 meters)
were not uncommon,
Rauisuchians were all quadrupedal (walked on four legs), and like
Aetosaurs had a pillar-erect
limb posture. The erect gait of Rauisuchians is evidence that
they were active and agile predators - and their gait was clearly
an advantage of many of those of their prey animals which had
less advanced locomotion, such as
Dicynodonts
and
Rhynchosaurs.
