Euoplocephalus — size comparison — facts and sources

Euoplocephalus was an armoured herbivore of Late Cretaceous North America. Bony plates protected its low, broad body, and its tail ended in a club.

The genus has a history of specimens once grouped under one name being separated again. Not all older reconstructions refer to exactly the same species. The club may have delivered defensive blows, a possibility assessed from the structure of the vertebrae and tail bones.
