Paleontologists have discovered more about the Stegosaurus and it's awesome lethal tail through some newly found fossils. Apparently the Stegosaurus' tail was made for 3D combat. www.geosociety.org/news/pr/2014/14-77.htm
It's tail was well muscled all the way to it's tip and was similar to a monkey's tail in that it had no locking joints!


Mamasaurus

This article is really cool! I can't believe nobody's commented on this.  :)

That's a great clip that really puts a visual to the article. Where is it from?

Also, is the movement of the plates shown a reasonable hypothesis?  :)

I can't see the video without a plugin, but I'm guessing it's the PBS series The Dinosaurs?

I liked the Fantasia mention to always liked that one.

It looks like Stegosaurs was a very dangerous creature!
