All of the ancestors of Stegosaurus have been extinct for over 150 million years. The closest living relatives of Stegosaurus are birds, which evolved from dinosaurs, although they didn't evolve from Stegosaurus. All birds are equally related to Stegosaurus.

Is a stegosaurus kosher?

The concept of kosher pertains to dietary laws in Judaism, which primarily apply to animals that are land-dwelling and have split hooves and chew their cud. Since the stegosaurus is an extinct dinosaur, it is not subject to these laws. However, hypothetically, if it were alive today, it would not be considered kosher as it does not fit the criteria outlined in the Torah. Thus, a stegosaurus would not be kosher.
