explanation being that the fish, lying at the bottom of a lake or river, passively went into the ribcage due to underwater turbulence. The second explanation suggests that the fish died whilst within the ribcage when they were scavenging, while the third explanation is that the fish represent gut contents. The authors considered the third explanation to be the most reasonable, arguing that the obscure body outline and incompleteness of the fish being was caused by digestive acids. The fish skeletons are scattered on both sides of the body cavity instead of being tightly packed in the stomach region, which may have been caused by the expulsion of gases or the compression of the stomach region post-mortem. In addition to fish, the tail of a lizard is preserved on the posterolateral side of the ribcage.

individuals compared to the adults is coherent with what is known of
Mesozoic dinosaurs population dynamics and of high conservation deposits. Also, the aquatic depositional setting in which the specimen was found doesn't necessarily mean the animal itself was aquatic (many other dinosaurs have been found in such contexts) and the chaotic distribution of fish inside the thoracic cavity, and the presence of one outside of it, are more coherent with fish scavenging on the animal's carcass (it would also be expected that, given the abundance of specimens, more showed evidence of a supposedly piscivorous diet, but such is not the case).

The sternum is dissimilar to those of other ankylosaurs, as it is not paddle-like with ovoid medial ends that narrow posterolaterally like that of nodosaurids, or fused at the midline to form a diamond shape, with narrower posterolaterally directed processes like that of ankylosaurids.
