Struthiosaurus was a small armoured dinosaur that lived on islands in Europe. It had bony plates on its back for protection and ate plants. Scientists think it was a dwarf ankylosaur because it was much smaller than its relatives.21

Struthiosaurus had very poor hearing and relied mostly on its armour for defence.1
It was one of the smallest armoured dinosaurs, only about 2 to 3 metres long.1
Struthiosaurus lived on islands in Europe during the Late Cretaceous, which may have made it a dwarf species.2
Its name means 'ostrich lizard' because the first skull piece found looked bird-like.1
Scientists think Struthiosaurus was a slow and solitary animal.1
Three valid species of Struthiosaurus are known: S. austriacus, S. transylvanicus, and S. languedocensis.1

?What did Struthiosaurus eat?
It was a herbivore, meaning it ate plants.2
?When did Struthiosaurus live?
It lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 83 to 75 million years ago.2
?Where was Struthiosaurus found?
Fossils have been found in Austria, France, Romania, Spain, and possibly Hungary.12
?Why did Struthiosaurus have poor hearing?
Scientists think it had limited hearing because its cochlear duct was the shortest of any dinosaur known. It relied mostly on its armour for defence.3
?Was Struthiosaurus a dwarf dinosaur?
Yes, scientists think it was a dwarf ankylosaur because it was much smaller than its relatives and lived on islands.2
