Stegosaurus dinosaur, artwork
Stegosaurus dinosaur, computer artwork. Stegosaurs ( roofed reptiles ) were herbivores that lived throughout the world during the Jurassic period, around 150 million years ago. They reached about 6 metres long and weighed about 1.5 tonnes. The distinctive broad plates running in two rows along their backs are thought to have helped control their body temperature by radiating or absorbing heat. Stegosaurs defended themselves with the long spikes on their tails. They had tiny brains in relation to their size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the incredible Stegosaurus dinosaur in all its glory. Created through computer artwork, this masterpiece brings to life the majestic creature that roamed our planet approximately 150 million years ago during the Jurassic period. With a length of about 6 meters and weighing around 1.5 tonnes, these herbivores were truly remarkable. The most striking feature of the Stegosaurus is undoubtedly its distinctive broad plates running along its back in two rows. These plates are believed to have played a crucial role in regulating their body temperature by either radiating or absorbing heat. Additionally, for self-defense purposes, they possessed long spikes on their tails. Despite their massive size, Stegosaurs had relatively small brains compared to other dinosaurs of similar proportions. Nevertheless, they thrived as armored reptiles and left an indelible mark on Earth's history. This stunning illustration captures every intricate detail of this prehistoric marvel against a clean white background, emphasizing its unique characteristics and highlighting its place in nature's grand tapestry. A true testament to zoological artistry and paleontological expertise, this image from Science Photo Library is a must-have for any enthusiast fascinated by ancient creatures and the wonders of biology.
