All About Stegosaurus Plates and Spikes

Our Spiky Stegosaurus has some of the coolest features of any dinosaur. Look closely at the big, bumpy plates along its back and the four sharp spikes on its tail, called a "thagomizer." These parts made the Stegosaurus look extra awesome and helped protect it from other dinosaurs.

• Plates: The large plates stood tall and might have helped the Stegosaurus stay cool.
• Tail Spikes: The tail spikes were used for defense. Imagine coloring them extra sharp!
• Gentle Face: Even with all those spikes, the Stegosaurus had a gentle, plant-eating smile.
