\nThe smallest skull yet discovered of a long-necked dinosaur \u2015 with a total cranial length of approximately 24 centimetres \u2015 suggests young sauropods may have had different diets, shown different physical features, and lived in separate groups from their parents. Compared to other, larger specimens, the skull reveals features more similar to those of the dinosaur\u2019s ancestors than those of its own, adult parents. As the dinosaurs grew, these features changed into the more recent states found in adults.<\/p>\n
