A Stegosaurus has spikes to protect itself from predators attacking. It will kill another dinosaur if it tries to attack and kill him.
HOPE THIS HAS HELPED IF NOT THEN TYPE UP THE TOP HOW MUCH SPIKES DOES A STEGOSAURUS HAVE ON ITS TAIL!!!
Stegosaurus had four spikes on its tail called thagomizers. Stegosaurus used thagomizers for self defense against predators like Allosaurus.
Each thagomizer was two feet long, and two protruded from each side of the end of the tail. If attacked, Stegosaurus could quickly pivot on its hind legs in an effort to keep its tail end toward the predator. With one powerful swing of the tail, it could stab the enemy with one or even two of its thagomizers, leaving an agonizing and, in some cases, potentially fatal wound. However, even their thagomizers didn't make them invincible, and Stegosaurus were sometimes killed by predators.

Stegosaurus' spiked tail is called a "thagomizer."Way back in 1982, a famous Far Side cartoon showed a group of cavemen clustered around a picture of a Stegosaurus' tail; one of them points to the sharp spikes and says, "Now this end is called the thagomizer...after the late Thag Simmons." The word "thagomizer" has been used by paleontologists ever since.
