  • Pronunciation: you–OH–plo–kef–ah–luss
  • Lived: 76–70 million years ago
  • Size: up to seven metres long
  • Name means: well–armoured head
  • Fossils found in: Canada and USA
  • Diet: herbivore – ate huge amounts of low–growing plants
  • Big and slow, I spent most of my time nibbling large amounts of plants.
  • My bony tail club was a deadly weapon if I needed to defend myself.
  • I was covered in protective plates and spikes, even on my eyelids.
  • I was as heavy as five cows, easy to imagine when you know I ate the equivalent of 700 carrots every day!
