 It is considered that "Drepanosaurus" was also a digging animal and could use the tail as a tool for unearthing insects.Concerns about whether "Drepanosaurus's" tail was flexible enough to be used for digging are still brought up today, especially since many characteristics point to "Drepanosaurus" being primarily a tree-dwelling animal.Being only 45 to 50 cm in length, "Drepanosaurus" spent its time in trees using its gripping chameleon-like hands and feet to climb from branch to branch as well as its long tail to help wrap around branches.
