The Caiuajara is notable for its huge head-crest that changed shape as the animal matured. Both sexes appear to have had crests, although these may have been differently patterned. they were presumably used during mating rituals as species recognition or to show sexual maturity. The CollectA model shows an adult on the ground. The animal lived in a desert environment near a lake but it is not known what it ate. The jaws are toothless and it is assumed that it was either a herbivore or ate insects. The largest examples are thought to have had a wingspan of some 2.35 metres.
