Stegosaurus. Back plates, tail spikes, and dat thick booty.
I have this feeling that Michael Crichton, the author of Jurassic park, fucking hated the Stegosaurus. Every time it comes up in the book he shit talks it relentlessly for being stupid, clumsy, and wholly incapable of self preservation.
Cool, more reasons to like my steggy boi.
I'm younger than he would be and we were taught that stegosaurs were so dumb they had to have a second brain in their spine to run their ass end.
Which turns out to likely be entirely made up.
That's the point! :) Crichton never got updated it seems. In retrospect, it's kinda hard to believe they were dumber than cows or chickens. No large animal could survive being as dumb as they were made out.
I like stego because they had 2 brains. A tiny one in the head and a larger one mid spine.
