STEGOSAURUS

Stegosaurus was a dinosaur of the Jurassic period. A herbivore, it was about seven metres long, walked on all fours and had a large bulky body and a small tubular head at the end of a longish neck. Stegosaurus had small, blunt, leaf-like teeth at the back of the jaws, the front of the mouth being toothless. It had diamond shaped spiny plates on its back and four long spikes on its tail probably for defence against predators.
