Stegosaurus was an herbivore, or plant eater. They probably ate mosses, ferns, horsetails, cycads and conifers. A study of the bite force and teeth of Stegosaurus suggests that they couldn't bite through sticks that were more than 1.2 centimeters thick, so they would have needed to eat very tender vegetation.

When did Wuerhosaurus lived?

The most important thing about Wuerhosaurus is when it lived--this Asian stegosaur has been dated to the early-middle Cretaceous period (up to 110 million years ago or so), making it the last of its kind, pending any further fossil discoveries (most genera of stegosaur went extinct by the end of the Jurassic period). Wuerhosaurus sported the spines and plates characteristic of all stegosaurs, but it had a shorter neck, a lower-slung posture and a squatter trunk, all hints that it fed exclusively on low-lying vegetation (rather than rearing up occasionally to nibble from trees).
