they have long bony spikes on their thumbs which is good for stabbing a theropod who tries to attack it which can hurt a predator badly.But also they use their big long tails to swing and slap at a enemy's face for assault.Other times they just flee.
Iguanodon, a herbivorous dinosaur, had several adaptations to protect itself from predators. Its most notable defense mechanism was its strong, thumb spikes, which could be used to jab at attackers. Additionally, Iguanodon likely lived in herds, providing safety in numbers and enabling group defense strategies. Its size and ability to run quickly also helped it evade potential threats.
Iguanodon were very large herbivores, growing to between 33 and 43 feet long and weighing 3.5 tons. Their large size would have defended them from smaller predators. If they were attacked by a large theropod, they probably would have run away on their hind legs if possible. The top speed of an Iguanodon running bipedally is estimated to be 15 miles per hour. In the case that an Iguanodon was cornered, it may have attempted to defend itself by striking with its long, sharp thumb claws.

Answerer: Marine Iguanodon and Lesser Antillean Iguanodon. Asker: How did you know? Answerer: That is another question.
Iguanodon is its genus name. There is one currently accepted species of the Iguanodon genus. This species's Latin name is Iguanodon bernissartensis.
There is no "nickname" for Iguanodon. Iguanodon is the scientific name for the genus, and the full Latin name for the only species in this genus is Iguanodon bernissartensis. Iguanodon means "iguana tooth" in while bernissartensis refers to Bernissart, Belgium, where the first nearly complete skeletons of Iguanodon were discovered.
Yes, the Iguanodon was an herbivorous dinosaur. They ate contemporary plants such as conifers and ferns. To reach higher foliage, they could have stood on their hind legs.

Dr. Gideon Mantell is the person who named the genus Iguanodon, meaning "iguana tooth." He did this because at the time Iguanodon was only known from its giant, iguana-like teeth. He was going to call it Iguanosaurus, meaning "iguana-lizard," but because the iguana is a lizard, Dr. Mantell's friend, William Daniel Conybeare, said that Iguanasaurus would be more applicable to the iguana itself. Cornybeare suggested the names Iguanoides, meaning "iguana-like," or Iguanodon. There is one currently accepted species belonging to the Iguanodon genus. Its species name, bernissartensis, comes from the name of Bernissart, Belgium, where the first skeletons of this species were found.
