Remember the hip classification I was talking about earlier? Well, there are actually two distinctive hip shapes when it comes to dinosaurs. The two names for the classifications are saurischians and ornithischians, the former meaning “lizard hip” and the ladder “bird-hipped”. A lizard hip dinosaur had bones that point forward, and a bird hip had bones that face backwards. Each type was specially designed throughout the process of evolution to work best for each type of animal.
