What the Saltasaurus coloring page shows
The herbivorous dinosaur stands beneath the broad opening of a stone arch. Scales and small armored areas cover its sturdy body, while separate rocks and tufts of grass frame the ground around it. The arch gives the prehistoric landscape a sheltered, cavern-like feature.
Fascinating facts about Saltasaurus
Saltasaurus was a sauropod with small bony plates embedded in its skin, a feature known as osteoderms. Its fossils helped show that some long-necked dinosaurs possessed body armor rather than relying only on their size for protection.
