A young ankylosaurus standing calmly
The juvenile armored dinosaur occupies the center of the page and is seen from the side in a standing position. Small scales and larger plates cover its body, including the area around its neck and legs. A single horizontal ground line appears behind it, with no other scenery in the background.
Growing up with protective armor
Armored dinosaurs developed bony structures within their skin, known as osteoderms. A young animal would have grown considerably before reaching adult size, and its armor developed along with the rest of its body. Juveniles may have depended on both their protective covering and the presence of older animals to stay safer from predators.
