Baby Stegosaurus would have made an easy meal for almost any carnivorous dinosaur, even small ones like Ornitholestes. However, Stegosaurus lived in herds and the parents would have done their best to protect the youngsters. Adult Stegosaurus had predators too, though. Carnivorous dinosaurs large enough to hunt adult Stegosaurus include Ceratosaurus, Torvosaurus, Allosaurus, Epanterias, and Saurophaganax.
