Oh, look at the clock! It's time!

Today's DotW is... Euoplocephalus!

Our good ol' Euoplocephalus are well protected with their bony armour and a tail club. All those knobs and plates (called osteoderms) will make any predator think twice before attacking!

Today's DoTW is... Orodromeus!

Their name translates to 'mountain runner' - and appropriately, it's speculated these small and nimble herbivores lived in mountainous terrain burrows!

Oh, another Monday already? Time for then!

Today's DotW is... Hesperonychus!

This little fellow is one of the smallest known carnivorous dinosaurs from North America! Being small in size, and not a huge threat, it has no problems living alongside herbivores.

Are you ready, friends? Monday is here, so it's time for another

Today's DotW is... Dromaeosaurus!

Their sharp teeth and sickle claws might intimidate most folks, but these theropods are more interested in education rather than predatory life!

The wait is over... By popular demand the is back!

Let's start this year's DotW with.. a Parasaurolophus 🦕

Their cranial crest is actually hollow inside, and works like a tube! It amplified their voice, allowing Parasaurolophus to make some impressive honks!

Hey, hey, it's time!

Say hi to Euoplocephalus (pronounced you-AH-ploe-SEFF-ah-luss 😉): a heavily-build herbivore, with their body protected by a bony armor. Beware of the tail club though! Its swing can break bones😨
