    The end of the stegosaurids vs the beginning of the ceratopsians

      At least their cousins, the ankylosaurs managed to last to the very end of the cretaceous.

      Tbf, there was only one large ceratopsian outside of North America.

    What’s interesting is that very recently more stegosaurs were found from the middle Cretaceous showing that they at least held out for a bit longer, sadly I don’t think they lived long enough to see the asteroid but hey still an impressive run for the family.

    Killer job on this story. Its a sad and desprete existance story.
    U hear about the stegosaur w preserved skin & 1 plate?

    Official my third favorite stegosaur. My favorite being stegosaurus and my second being kentrosaurus.
    Alot of the paleoart of wuerhosaurus show it with rounded plates and i find that simply fascinating considering most stegos have either triangular plates or long/short spikes instead.
    Plus it lived in the early cretaceous whats not to love? Im glad its in jwe2 my favorite park is pretty full but i might make some adjustments to fit these guys in.

    Wuerhoooo, great story and description yet again! I have to agree that changes in food resources, climate, terrain, and competition with adaptable herbivorous dinosaurs (especially the more heavily armored ankylosaurs) are probably what drove Stegosaurs to extinction. Now you could cover the first of the Thyreophorans (Armored Dinosaurs), basal species like Scelidosaurus, Scutellosaurus or Jakapil!

      If he does, I hope he puts the idea that Torosaurus and Triceratops are the same animal to rest. Seriously, Jack Horner needs to shut up.

      I was looking into vallibonavenatrix right now actually.
      It is an 8 meter spinosaurid of the spinosaurinae tribe and its name means huntress from Vallibona. That’s it, not much I think it’s pretty fragmentary like all spinosaurs.

      The indeterminate stegosaur remains from the Kallamedu formation are possibly just misidentified sauropod bones, and Dravidosaurus is dubious
