Ankylosaurids

I am going to talk about ankylosaurids today.  There are many types of ankylosaurids.  The most well known is Ankylosaurus, which is my favorite dinosaur.  The other ankylosaurids from Ankylosaurus' subfamily are Euoplocephalus, Pinacosaurus, Nodocephalosaurus, Saichania, Shanxia, Talarurus, Tarchia, Tianzhenosaurus, Tsagantegia.  Ankylosaurus lived in North America at the end of the Cretacious Period.  Ankylosaurus was as big as a tank.  I think Ankylosaurus was the strongest dinosaur ever found.  Ankylosaurus also had a hard bony club on it's tail and a lot of spikes on it's back and head. 

I learned a lot about the Ankylosaurus and other dinosaurs as the week-long Paleontology and Archaeology camp I went to at the Discovery Center of Idaho last summer.
