  7. The Ankylosaurus lived in western north america between 68-66 million years ago,this was known as the cretaceous period.
    They were herbivorous,its wide muzzle was adapted for non-selective low -browse cropping.
    The Ankylosaurus was known as a tank because it has rock solid cervical armour plates on it back.
    The name Ankylosaurus means 'fused lizard'.
    The Ankylosaurus had a massive tail club that it could use to generate a large amount of force, potentially breaking the bones of another dinosaur while defending itself.

  9. This Late Jurassic Sauropod thrived on a time when the Earth's warm temperature encouraged rapid plant growth. It needed a lot of food to keep it alive. Using rake-like teeth , this animal could have stripped an area of any vegetation very quickly, especially considering there is evidence they traveled in herds. Diplodocus' tail was about 45 feet(14m)long, which is one of the longest tails of any animal to have ever walked the Earth. Like most Sauropods, Diplodocus' nostrils were actually high up on its forehead instead of at the end of its snout. A recently discovered fossil of a skin impression suggests that this animal had spines along its neck. The name Diplodocus means Double Beam. The Humongous Diplodocus was 90.00 feet 27.00m. Its body weighed 27000.00 pounds 14000.00 kilograms. The starving Diplodocus ate plants and leaves from trees with its long neck. It lived in Colorado, North America and Wyoming for 150,000,000 years ago.
