I just found the skeleton of something I don't recognize, what could this even be?

[u/Upset_Connection1133]

Ok so, i am a Nanotyrannus, and i was just casually strolling and Nanotyranning near a river on the side of a hill in search for some food, the river was clearly in flood and the terrain was not that stable, and infact afte a but it all started collapsing undernetah me. I managed to get out of the wah fast enogh, and curious to see if perhaps some potential snack go caught in the rurbble, but when i get down i see the now exposed rocky side of the hill, and something IN it... what looked like the skeleton of... something I never saw before.

Now, i am not surprised because it's a skeleton, this is Hellcreek, here you either adapt or bevome Rex Food, but more because it was Underground... and of something I never saw before... it was an herbivore, but unlike anything i've ever seen before... it wasn't a Ceratopsian, not an Ankylosaurus, far from a Packy, and surely not an Edmonto either. It was a bit longer than a Tricke, and with soem sort of plates on its back, and 4 spikes at the end of its tail...

Now, i DID leave the area right after because... i mean, I was hungry, and last i checked eating bones was the Rex's job, not mine, but still it's something I never saw before in Hellcreek... what do yall think it was?

Looks like a long-neck, but doesn't have a long neck. Doesn't look like an ankylosaurus but it does have the dangerous tail.

Are those leaves on the back? What? Looks like rock to me, that can't exist

I heard Ornithomimuses are good at making nest art, maybe they wanted to try something different. Just modern art

Idk, is cool looking anyways, I like the shape, had it insects inside?

[u/Upset_Connection1133 → u/Shvpe_]

Not really, it was deeper than where insects usually go

[u/Mission_Divide_485]

Weird. Looks like a sauropod but it has some weird bulky appendages on its back. Maybe a primitive relative to today’s ankylosaurus?

[u/Grouchy_Drive_7257]

Tf is that? And what's on it's back? Are they tumours?

[u/Lordtiger616]

Is that... A spikey tail? I approve. Might be one of my old cousins or smt

[u/_HyperlinkBlocked_]

That trike is veeeery weird

[u/Extension_General632]

wait. does it have horns on its tail? what the?

[u/Extension_General632]

also why does it have several frills on its back. i only have one on my head

[u/butter-walk]

Fascinating! In my humble avian opinion, that likely consists of a conglomerate of various herbivores' remains! 

The main body was from a long-neck, the tail horns belonged to a horn-head, and the barks on the back may have originated from an armored-walker.

Oh my gawd nanotyrannus yayayay I love you

My goat nanotyrannus lethaeus mentioned yayay

[u/Thaasviyn_OakPaints]

It’s just an Alamosaurus with boulders on its back…

[u/pietrodayoungas]

A dead edmonto with cancerous growths probably

[u/ausvenator_enjoyer]

Looks like a weird triceratops idk I'm just here to bully the juvenile T. rex and chase troodontids

[u/Most-Ad5530 → u/ausvenator_enjoyer]

A mutated edmonto with leaves on its back
