Stegosaurus

Stegosaurus was a huge plant-eater. It had huge plates on its back. It had 2 rows of plates. It also had 4 spikes on its tail. If a predator attacked Stegosaurus his in trouble! Stegosaurus would pump blood in his plates to scare the attacker. And if that did`t work Stegosaurus would lash his tail that would wound the attacker. It lived in the Jurassic Period. You woudn`t believe that Stegosaurus had the brain the size of a walnut! It had a baek. If Stegosaurus whanted to it could rear up on its hind legs.
