We made an armored dinosaur!

Ankylosaurus lived in the Mesozoic Era. It is divided into three periods: Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous. In which of them lived dinosaur - a controversial question. Many articles say that he existed at the end of the last period, 66-74 million years ago. Based on modern standards, the lizard is considered a large animal. In terms of size, it can be compared to an adult elephant or rhinoceros. At the first estimates of the weight of Ankylosaurus, paleontologists indicated a figure of up to 6 tons. The animal varied in length from 7 to 9 meters. In 2004, the recalculation of the dimensions of the dinosaur conducted Kenneth Carpenter. For the basis of calculations took the found skulls. According to his data, the length of the largest specimen found was equal to 6 meters and 25 centimeters, and the height to the hip - 170 cm. In 2017, new information appeared on the basis of more complete skeletons of ankylosaurids. According to them, the length of the lizard was about 8 meters, weight from 4 to 8 tons, and height - 2.5 meters. Duration of life ankylosaurus scientists have not yet been able to find out. However, its anatomy and strong protective shell suggest that he lived long enough compared to the weaker and more vulnerable representatives of his species.
