Dinosaurs in Snow: Antarctopelta

Dinosaurs in Snow: Antarctopelta

Our next post in the Dinosaurs in Snow series is Antarctopelta. An Nodosauridae dinosaur from the cretaceous. Antarctopelta`s length is 4 meters long. Antarctopelta is the first know armoured dinosaur to live in antarctia. Antarctopelta is very closely related to Ankylosaurids, but as a nodosaur, Antarctopelta dosen`t a tail club.
Antarctpelta has side spikes called ostderms. The ostderms are used to protect Antarctpelta from the teeth of predators. Thats all for this post! See you next week!
