7. Coelophysis, meaning "hollow form" in reference to its hollow bones is one of the earliest known genre of dinosaur. It was a small, carnivorous biped that lived during the Late Triassic stage of the southwestern United States, with scattered material representing similar animals to Coelophysis found worldwide in some Late Triassic and Early Jurassic formations. The length of a Coelophysis is 3 meters. They had a long neck, almost as long as a baby giraffes. They had three toes and three claws for hands. They're foot length is 4 inches long! It’s also called the lizard- hipped dinosaur.
