Free Stegosaurus coloring pages, the dinosaur with back plates! Discover our drawings of this famous herbivore.
The Stegosaurus is immediately recognizable thanks to the large bony plates on its back and the spikes on its tail. It lived about 155 to 150 million years ago, during the Jurassic period.
The Stegosaurus measured about 30 feet long and weighed up to 5 tons. Its 17 back plates probably served to regulate its temperature and impress rivals. The 4 spikes on its tail were formidable weapons!
The Stegosaurus offers many coloring possibilities! Its plates can be different colors, perhaps red or orange as some scientists believe.
