Stegosaurus

It is supposed that a lot of time ago,due to a meteorite collision with earth,the planet was surrounded with a huge cloud of dust so dense that sunlight was not able to reach the surface.Due to this plants and trees were not able to photosynthesize and eventually died,because of this vegetarian dinosaurs including the Stegosaurus died leading to the death of flesh eating dinosaurs that depended on vegetarian dinosaurs as their food.

Because Stegosaurus had much longer hind limbs than forelimbs, it couldn't have traveled very fast on all four legs. At 5.5 tons, it was also too heavy to run or walk on hind legs like hadrosaurs could. Thus, the top speed of an adult Stegosaurus was probably about 4 to 5 miles per hour.

Pterodactylus fossils have been found in the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany, as well as in other parts of Europe and Africa. At the time, Europe was a group of subtropical islands with a relatively dry climate. The plants included conifers, cycads, ferns, horsetails, and ginkgoes. Pterodactylus would have lived and hunted in these forests, and at night would have slept in the trees.

There were four different species of Stegosaurus. The largest was Stegosaurus armatus, which grew to be 30 feet long. Stegosaurus longispinus and Stegosaurus stenops were both smaller, growing to be about 23 feet long.

Stegosaurus had a brain that weighed about 2.8 oz, the same as a dog's brain. An apple weighs almost twice that much. That is very small considering the fact that the Stegosaurus was 30 feet long and weighed 5.5 tons.

Stegosaurus was a 30 foot long, four legged, herbivorous dinosaur that lived in North America around 150 million years ago. They had bulky bodies, short forelimbs, and large hindlimbs. The head was small, and its neck hung low to the ground. They are most famous for the triangular plates that protruded from either side of the spine, and the four spikes at the end of its tail, which were used for self defense.

Stegosaurus's only weapons were the four thagomizers, or tail spikes, that it had. Its plates wouldn't have protected its sides from attack, either. Ankylosaurus, however, was covered in nearly impenetrable bony armor and was armed with a bony tail club. The Stegosaurus could probably escape if it tried, but if it didn't flee the Ankylosaurus would almost certainly kill the Stegosaurus.

Of course, this is all hypothetical. Herbivorous animals very rarely fight other herbivores of different species, not to mention that Ankylosaurus and Stegosaurus didn't live at the same time.

Some dinosaurs, such as Tyrannosaurus and Parasaurolophus, nursed their young, while others like Diplodocus had to go through childhood on their own.

Back long ago It was pretty normal for dinos to have 4 feet. But some have 2 feet. If we are talking about height the normal height is 25ft mabye taller but some were just 4ft

Stegosaurus existed from about 155 to 150 million years ago. That was during the Kimmeridgian and Tithonian stages of the Jurassic period. The Jurassic was the second period of the Mesozoic era.

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 did have predators, though. Carnivorous dinosaurs large enough to hunt adult Stegosaurus include Ceratosaurus, Torvosaurus, Allosaurus, Epanterias, and Saurophaganax.

Well contrary to popular belief giganotosaurus is in fact the largest predatory dinosaur yet discovered. size estimates are lacking as we have yet to find a complete skeleton and of what have been discovered most are not fully grown, but the best estimates range from 45-49ft long. It was a Theropod in theFamily Carcharodontosaurids and the Genus Giganotosaurus carolinii. It weighed over 8 tons and preyed on the giant herbivorous saurapod dinosaurs that lived in its home of patigonia in the mid-cretaceous. it had bannana shaped serated teeth made for cutting off giant lumps of flesh. it likely hunted in packs. Hi !!!!!

Look at the teeth peg-like teeth or grinding teeth are usually signs of herbivorism in dinosaurs also look at body shape if a dinosaurs head has lots of muscle scars it most likely was a carnivore as they needed a strong head.

Othniel Charles Marsh discovered Stegosaurus near the town of Morrison, Colorado in 1877. Since then, Stegosaurus fossils have been found in the Morrison Formation in Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. In 2006, it was announced that Stegosaurus had also been discovered in Portugal.

Stegosaurus had a brain that weighed about 2.8 oz, the same as a dog's brain. That is very small considering that the Stegosaurus was 30 feet long and weighed 5.5 tons. People often say that its brain was the size of a walnut or a pea, but that exaggerates its small size.

Stegosaurus had four thagomizers, or tail spikes, at the end of its tail. Fossil evidence suggests that Stegosaurus used thagomizers to defend themselves against predators by swinging its tail and trying to stab the predator.

Stegosaurus was nine metres long, and its brain was about the size of a walnut. This makes it the dinosaur with the smallest brain for its body size. Stegosaurus is dummest.

Stegosaurus belonged to the family Stegosauridae, and the suborder Stegosauria, which includes all dinosaurs with vertical plates. Stegosauria belongs to the clade Thyreophora, which also includes ankylosaurs. Thyreophora belongs to the order Ornithischia, or bird hipped dinosaurs.

Stegosaurus was about 30 feet long, 15 feet tall at the top of its highest plates(about 10 feet at the head), and weighed up to 4 tons.

The stegosaurus was about 30ft long and 14ft tall.

Answer2: The stegosaurs were a group of the ornithischians that had large bony blades mounted in a pattern down their back. They walked on all four legs and were about 20 feet [6 m] long, and 8 feet [2.4 m] high at the hips. More recently, it has been thought that the bony back plates served not just as a protection but as part of a cooling system for their body. Hind legs were heavy and elephantine, while front legs were of smaller size, causing the small head to be low to the ground. The tail had long, bony spikes radiating from the end.

Stegosaurus fossils come from the Morrison Formation in the western USA and date to between 155 and 150 million years ago. Some have recently been found in Portugal from the same time period, so they probably lived throughout North America and much of Europe. At that time, the area was a semi-arid subtropical plain with distinct wet and dry seasons. Near rivers, there were forests of conifers, cycads, ginkgoes, ferns, and horsetails. Further from the rivers there were open areas covered in ferns with scattered trees. It is believed that Stegosaurus preferred the drier fern fields.

Evidence suggests that the Tyrant lizard king was one of the most nurturing dinosaurs in the animal kingdom, well to its own family anyway. Both parents cared for young, they brought them food, protected them from predators and presumably taught them to hunt. The Tyrannosaurus fossil called "Sue", named after its discoverer Susan Hendrickson showed numerous crippling injuries that did not kill the dinosaur. This suggests that other dinosaurs nursed her back to health by bringing food until 'she' recovered. Otherwise one of those crippling injuries.

Othniel Charles Marsh named Stegosaurus in 1877. Its fossils were discovered near Morrison, Colorado shortly before that. Originally, he thought that Stegosaurus was an aquatic, turtle like animal until more specimens were discovered.
