I remember having a book when I was a kid showing a T-rex fighting a stegosaurus. It blew my mind when I found out that we live closer in time to the T-rex than the T-rex lived to Stegosaurus.
-
The "I'll break your ankles" saurus.
-
Imagine being so badass that evolution not only gives you natural heavy plate armor but also a war hammer.
-
I would argue that if a T-rex was desperate enough to attack a full grown Ankylosaurus, and had its leg shattered, there is a very slim chance it would hobble towards an area that would be ideal for fossilization like a swamp or someplace where two working legs are necessary.
-
T. Rex more than likely wasn’t scared of it, but probably knew it wasn’t able to get past the armor so it didn’t waste its time.
-
I'm surprised you haven't heard of the ankylosaur "mummy" found in Canada. It was a type of Nodosaur. It's scales, spikes, and plates were absurdly well preserved. Look into it.
-
Predators like T. rex would have learned early in life to go after easier prey. After all, having just two legs, if it suffered a broken bone in one of it's lower legs from an Ankylosaurus club, that would be a death sentence. And as I think about it, populations of Ankylosaurus wouldn't need large numbers to survive as a genus (species?) due to a very low predation rate once achieving adulthood. A pretty ingenious animal.

Ankylosaurus is my favorite dinosaur, always has been, always will be
-
I wonder how much pain and broken bones his ancestors had to endure for this beast to develop this massive armour
-
The one dinosaur T-Rex was afraid of was Mrs. T-Rex.
-
Could I pet it tho?
-
Only five incomplete Ankylosaurus specimens have ever been found. Contrast that to the literal tens of thousands of Edmontosaurus and Triceratops specimens that have been discovered, and it’s no surprise that we haven’t any Ankylosaurus specimens with T. rex bite marks on them. It’s not because T. rex never fed on them. It’s because the available sample size for Ankylosaurus specimens is so insanely tiny that the likelihood of finding any evidence of feeding on them would be a statistical wonder.
-
Since they were herbivores, I wonder if they ever used their clubs for slamming tree trunks to make leaves fall when times are tough?
-
8:02 was savage.. he couldnt even be bothered to get up to do it 🤣
-
Ever since, I found out about Ankylosaurus. I thought it was a impressive beast of a dinosaur.
-
I love Ankylosaurus and Tyrannosaurus- two amazing dinosaurs.
-
Servosaurus: Welcome to Jurassic Restaurant! What'll you have? Ankylosaurus: How about a club sandwich? Servosaurus: You're in luck! That's our bony-plate special of the day.
-
AS we monkeys know stubbing your toe on a door or chair leg or grinding your shin or ankle bone off the lowered dishwasher door , the thought of been smacked by that club, i dont doubt the T rex just knew to not bother attacking the Rock
-
Hey, great vid. Physicist here!Just wanted to point out that Impulse is measured in N*s (Newton-seconds) not N/s (Newtons per second)
