Scutellosaurus

$4,500

Scutellosaurus. Early Jurassic, Arizona. A small plant-eater with rows of bony plates down its back, and an early cousin of the animals that became Stegosaurus and Ankylosaurus.

This one is about the size of the real thing: 53 inches nose to tail.

I built dinosaurs for museums for twenty years. Nobody has seen one of these alive, so the color is a guess. Most of it is.
