Vectipelta was an armoured dinosaur that looked like a walking tank! It had blade-like armour and spikes sticking out of its body. Even though it looked scary, it was a gentle plant-eater.2

2

Its fossils were found near Chilton Chine on the Isle of Wight, first by Gavin Leng in 1993 and then by Lin Spearpoint in 1994.1

3

Scientists used to think these bones belonged to another dinosaur called Polacanthus, but now they know Vectipelta is a different species.12

Vectipelta is more closely related to armoured dinosaurs from China than to other English ankylosaurs like Polacanthus.2

This dinosaur was named after Paul Barrett, a palaeontologist at the Natural History Museum in London.12

6

Vectipelta lived about 139 to 137 million years ago, during the Early Cretaceous period.6
