Popular Types of Dinosaurs

Just like in any other field, there are the most well-known species among dinosaurs. Most of them are present in our coloring pages, but don’t forget that besides popular Tyrannosaurs, Triceratops, and Velociraptors, there are thousands of other species.

Tyrannosaurus rex – an aggressive bipedal predator with a massive skull and a long, heavy tail. Tyrannosaurs are some of the largest known dinosaurs, with their body mass reaching 9-10 tons.
Ankylosaurus – a genus of herbivorous dinosaurs that inhabited our planet approximately 66 million years ago. To this day, archaeologists have not been able to find a complete skeleton of an Ankylosaurus, but its approximate appearance has already been reconstructed.
Pteranodon – a genus of pterosaurs, which includes the largest flying reptiles. The wingspan of some of its representatives reached 7 meters.
Triceratops – a genus of herbivorous dinosaurs that inhabited the territory of North America approximately 67 million years ago. The appearance of the Triceratops is quite recognizable and known, as it has a body structure similar to that of a rhinoceros.
Iguanodon – a fairly well-known genus of herbivorous dinosaurs, some individuals reaching a length of 13 meters. In the front part of the skull of Iguanodons, there was a beak, behind which hid a row of teeth, structurally resembling those of an iguana.
Stegosaurus – another popular genus of herbivorous dinosaurs, characterized by the presence of spikes along the entire length of the tail and bony plates on the back.
Velociraptor – a genus of small predatory bipedal dinosaurs. It is believed that although Velociraptor was much smaller than other representatives, it had a number of advanced anatomical features. For example, it was a bipedal feathered carnivore with a long tail, and on the hind part of its foot, it had a sickle-shaped claw, with which it could catch and disembowel prey.
