Fossils of Dinosaur With Armoured Plate and Bony Spikes Found, Could Withstand Impacts From Car Crash
Borealopelta markmitchelli, an armoured dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous, possessed highly durable keratin armour. A recent study reveals that its armour was capable of withstanding impacts equivalent to modern car crashes. This robust structure, a thick keratin sheath over bony plates, likely served both for predator protection and for combat among species members.
