		Euoplocephalus and all the other dinosaurs (except birds) perished in the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction, 65 million years ago.
		Euoplocephalus was an ankylosaur, whose brain small and whose intelligence (as measured by its relative brain to body weight, or EQ) was low among the dinosaurs.

	Euoplocephalus
		Euoplocephalus was a herbivore (plant-eater) that lived in North America during the late Cretaceous period, about 70 to 65 million years ago.
		Euoplocephalus was protected from carnivores by its armor which included oval plates embedded its skin, spikes, horns and a club-like tail.
		Two species of Euoplocephalus are now known: the original species is now known as Euoplocephalus tutus, and a second species which was discovered in 1924 by William Arthur Parks, is now known as Euoplocephalus acutosquameus (the latter was once known as Dyoplosaurus).

		Euoplocephalus meaning 'well-armored head' was one of the largest of the ankylosaurian dinosaurs, at about the size of a small elephant.
		Among the ankylosaurids, Euoplocephalus was exceeded in size only by Tarchia and Ankylosaurus.
		The entire head and body of the Euoplocephalus are covered with bands of armor, which allowed a surprisingly amount of flexibility.

		Euoplocephalus was well adapted to munching plants and lush greenery while protected from attack.
		Two closely related families of ankylosaurs were the "fused lizards" and the "node lizards." Both appeared from a common ancestor at the beginning of the Cretaceous period and have been found all over Europe, North America, and Asia.

	New refs (Euoplocephalus, Spinosaurus)
		Euoplocephalus tutus Lambe (1902) from the Late Cretaceous of North America, was the first ankylosaurian dinosaur known from significant cranial material.
		A relative abundance of more recently collected and prepared cranial material attributable to Euoplocephalus enables a reappraisal of this taxon (including the type specimen), and permits it to be employed as a morphological representative of the clade.
		Euoplocephalus is characterized by a distinctive pattern of cranial sculpturing across the preorbital area, relatively small, variably fluted teeth lacking a cingulum, a modified palpebral and a shallow nasal vestibule.

	The Armoured Dinosaurs--The Ankylosaurs
		Euoplocephalus is the only other known North American species of Ankylosaur, its name means "well-armoured head." It lived during the late Cretaceous Period, and reached 18 feet (5.5 meters) in length.
		Euoplocephalus was heavily armoured, even to the point of having armoured accessory eyelids to protect its eyes.
		Euoplocephalus had a horny, toothless beak, leading many paleontologists to believe that it was a generalist herbivore, cropping vegetation indiscriminately, while other species of Ankylosaur were more selective feeders.

	Euoplocephalus
		Euoplocephalus, a ponderous, clumsy creature weighing 2.5 metric tons, occurred in some abundance in Alberta.
		It was a squat animal whose trunk was nearly immovably bound by a mass of bony armour.

	In Hand Museum - Euoplocephalus tutus
		This was an adaptation to the predator-rich world in which it lived -- it also had a bony club at the end of its tail to lash out at attackers.
		There seems little doubt that Euoplocephalus tutus did not try to flee when attacked, instead it squatted down, presenting a nearly impervious back to attackers.
		In addition to a thick bony layer on the top of its skull, Euoplocephalus' tank like body was covered with bands and scutes of bone on its back and tail.

	Jurassic Park - Euoplocephalus
		Low slung and broad, the back of Euoplocephalus bore rows of bony shields with some taller spikes over the shoulders and at the base of the tail.
		Perhaps the extra length given by the twists and loops allowed air to be warmed while the animal was breathing in, or perhaps this passage collected moisture from air being exhaled.
		This arrangement suggests that Euoplocephalus was not particularly selective about what it ate and would consume almost any plant material that it could reach.
