Questions and answers

Questions and answers

How did Ankylosaurus defend itself?
Armor protected much of its broad body, and its tail ended in a heavy club. A forceful swing could have discouraged a predator from approaching.
Why was Ankylosaurus built so close to the ground?
Its short, powerful legs supported a heavy body and kept its center of mass low. This stable build also placed its head near the plants it ate.
Did Ankylosaurus eat meat?
No. It was an herbivore with a beak and small teeth suited to eating vegetation rather than hunting other animals.
