Stegosaurus Great Dinos Figure Safari Ltd Dinosaur Prehistoric Reptile Toy

Get ready for a prehistoric adventure with this stunning Stegosaurus figure from the Great Dinos collection by Safari! This intricately detailed toy features realistic textures and colors that will transport you back in time to the age of the dinosaurs.

The Stegosaurus toy model is 12.25 inches long and 6.5 inches high. It is mostly brown and red earth tones with some yellow, allowing the animal to blend into its surroundings.

Stegosaurus has extremely short front limbs that give it a very rounded back, placing its small head very close to the ground. Because of this, it is thought that it would have been restricted to feeding at or near ground level. As depicted in this Stegosaurus toy, this dinosaur had two sets of long bony spikes on the tail that probably functioned in defense against predators and a double row of plates along its back.

Stegosaurus was a large armored plant-eating dinosaur that lived during the Upper Jurassic Period (155-150 million years ago) in what is now western North America. It had an unusually small head, and although an adult would have weighed over 4.5 metric tons, its brain would have weighed less than three ounces. This led to the suggestion that Stegosaurus was extremely dull-witted, but it was clearly a successful dinosaur, so its small brain obviously wasn’t a problem.

The scientific name for Stegosaurus is Stegosaurus, meaning ‘covered lizard’ for the bony plates that covered its back.

The Stegosaurus is part of the Great Dinos collection, and like all Safari products, it is non-toxic and BPA free.

With its impressive size and lifelike design, this Stegosaurus figure is perfect for imaginative play and educational purposes.
