Nodosaurus
Click here for more Nodosaurus Pictures
Nodosaurus was a massive herbivore (plant-eater)
that lived
Cretaceous period
(between about 110 and 100 million years ago)
in North America.
Nodosaurus was one of the earliest armored dinosaurs discovered in
North America:
Two incomplete
fossil
skeletons (both missing the skull) of the animal were found in
Kansas
and Wyoming
in the 19th century. The name, which means "knobbed lizard", was
chosen by
Othniel C. Marsh
in 1889.
Nodosaurus was entirely herbivorous (plant-eating). It had a narrow head and small
teeth, and would probably have struggled to chew fibrous plants - suggesting that
either it ate only soft plants, or that its stomach may have been equipped with
gastroliths (stones swallowed to help digestion) for mashing up plant material.
Nodosaurus was about 13 to 20 feet (4.0 to 6.1 meters) long, and weighed around
1 ton. It was protected from predators by bony plates in its skin, and may also
have had spikes as well. However, unlike some of its armored relatives such as
Ankylosaurus,
Nodosaurus was not equipped with a club in its tail - so its defense seems
to have been entirely passive - when attacked, it probably lowered itself to the ground,
hiding behind its protective features, much like a modern day hedgehog.
Nodosaurus was a herbivore (plant-eater) that lived from 110 to 100 million years ago
