Bauria is an extinct genus of the suborder Therocephalia that existed during the Early and Middle Triassic period, around 246-251 million years ago. It belonged to the family Bauriidae. Bauria was probably a herbivore or omnivore.[citation needed] It lived in South Africa, specifically in the Burgersdorp Formation in South Africa.[1]
