Stegosaurus Dinosaur Plush Toy – Soft Jurassic Stuffed Animal

The Stegosaurus ("roofed lizard") is one of the most recognizable dinosaurs from the Late Jurassic period, living 155–145 million years ago. Famous for its double row of kite-shaped plates along its back and its fearsome spiked tail (nicknamed the "thagomizer"), this plant-eating giant could grow up to 25 feet long and weigh over 5 tons. Despite its massive size, its brain was only the size of a walnut, earning it a reputation for being not-so-bright.

However, it had some amazing features—its plates may have been used for thermoregulation or colorful displays to attract mates or intimidate predators, and its powerful tail spikes could deliver deadly blows! Fossils show it coexisted with dinosaurs like Allosaurus and Diplodocus. Fun fact: a Stegosaurus could swing its spiked tail in defense with surprising precision, and some fossils even show injuries on predators like Allosaurus.

With its dramatic body design and fascinating features, Stegosaurus continues to capture imaginations as one of the most unique dinosaurs to ever roam the Earth!
