Stegosaurus Wandering Cretaceous Hills
A heavy herbivorous dinosaur with defensive armor moves through an open terrain of rolling hills. The surrounding landscape features a large fern, a heavy boulder, and clouds floating across the sky above.
Natural Adaptations of the Plate-Backed Stegosaurus
The bony plates along a Stegosaurus's spine were filled with blood vessels, helping the dinosaur regulate its internal body temperature by absorbing solar heat or releasing excess thermal energy. Tail spikes called thagomizers were angled outward, allowing the dinosaur to swing its tail horizontally to fend off predators.
