Known for its tank-like size and formidable bone armor, the Ankylosaurus is revealed to have lived in Eastern Montana approximately 70 million years ago. The name 'Ankylosaurus' combines Greek words for 'fused lizard,' highlighting its unique physical traits, such as rigid bone plates and a powerful, club-shaped tail used for defense. The video educates viewers on its herbivorous diet, consisting of plants along ancient shorelines, and emphasizes the creature's impressive size and weight, comparable to four small cars.
