Click here for more Ankylosaurus Pictures
Ankylosaurus was a massive herbivore (plant-eater)
that lived in the late
Cretaceous period
(74 to 65 million years ago)
in North America.
It was one of the dinosaurs that died out in the Cretaceous-Tertiary
extinction,
65 million years ago.
Ankylosaurus was covered with massive armor to protect
it from predators,
was up to 33 feet (10 meters) long, and weighed over 4 tons.
The armor consisted of hundreds of oval-shapped
bony plates embedded in its leathery hide. There were also four spikes on its
head (two at the back, and one on each cheek), and a heavy bony growth on the
end of its tail, which was was probably use a club in defense, when
Ankylosaurus was attacked
by predators.
Ankylosaurus was named by
Barnum Brown
in 1908
and means "stiffened lizard".
