Scolosaurus

Igama lithetha: “pointed stake lizard”1
Yayitya: IzityaloIidayinaso ezinesikrweqeiCretaceous yamva

Scolosaurus was a tank-like dinosaur covered in bony plates and spikes. It walked on four legs and munched on low plants in what is now Canada, about 76 million years ago. Its body was so well armoured that even its eyelids had bone in them!1

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

1

Scolosaurus had a tail club made of fused bones that it could swing to defend itself.1

2

The first fossil of Scolosaurus was found in 1914 by William Edmund Cutler, who was badly injured when the heavy skeleton fell on him.1

3

For many years, scientists thought Scolosaurus was the same as Euoplocephalus, but newer studies show it is a different genus.1

4

The holotype specimen includes rare skin impressions and bony plates (osteoderms) that show how its armour was arranged.1

5

Scolosaurus lived alongside other giant herbivores like Centrosaurus and hadrosaurs in the Dinosaur Park ecosystem.1

6

Its name comes from Greek words meaning 'pointed stake lizard', referring to the many spikes on its body.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Scolosaurus esenokuba wayekhangeleka ngayo, wenziwe yikhompyutha ngokwento eyaziwa zizazinzulu. Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.
ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Scolosaurus

?How big was Scolosaurus?

Scolosaurus measured up to 5.6 metres (18 feet) in length and weighed about 2.2 metric tons (2.4 short tons).1

?Did Scolosaurus have a tail club?

Yes, Scolosaurus had a tail club made of fused bones that it could swing to defend itself.1

?What did Scolosaurus eat?

Scolosaurus ate low plants. It was a herbivore that munched on vegetation in what is now Canada.1

?When did Scolosaurus live?

Scolosaurus lived about 76.5 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.1

?Where was Scolosaurus found?

Scolosaurus fossils were found in Alberta, Canada, in the Dinosaur Park Formation and Oldman Formation.1

?Is Scolosaurus the same as Euoplocephalus?

No, scientists used to think they were the same, but newer studies show Scolosaurus is a different genus.1

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Many people think Scolosaurus is just a young Euoplocephalus.

Inyaniso: Scientists now agree Scolosaurus is a valid, separate genus with distinct armour and bones.1

Scolosaurus was named by Hungarian paleontologist Franz Nopcsa in 1928, based on a nearly complete skeleton found by William Cutler in 1914 in Alberta, Canada.12
Kusaxoxwa ngayo
Scientists debate whether the dinosaur Oohkotokia from Montana is actually the same as Scolosaurus, which would mean Scolosaurus lived in the USA too.1
