@Paleofolk @DoubleBeam As mentioned by @DoubleBeam I have a bit of data in my @PeerJ paper about the osteoderms of Borealopelta. I was surprised at how little data I could find for the relative contribution of the horncore/osteoderm vs. the keratinous sheath. https://t.co/97y6B7xRN7 https://t.co/2cqRTbdStr

Borealopelta, feeling rightfully protected with her armoured and spiky back and sides, charges headlong into the clearing, aiming directly at the invading herbivore stealing her snacks. https://t.co/tswUAHVHLp
