Fatgs divertents

1

Yingshanosaurus had a large spike near its shoulder that probably helped protect its body from predators.1

2

Its back plates were arranged in matching pairs along the neck, back, and tail, unlike some other stegosaurs that had staggered plates.1

3

This dinosaur lived during the Middle Jurassic, about 168 to 162 million years ago.2

4

The first Yingshanosaurus fossil was found in 1983 by a villager digging the foundation for his house in Jichuan Township.1

5

Yingshanosaurus was about 4 to 5 metres long, similar in size to the stegosaur Kentrosaurus from Africa.1

6

The holes between the vertebrae in its sacrum (hip area) were almost completely closed, a feature of more advanced stegosaurs.1
