Large Ankylosaurus Plush by Wild Republic

While the Ankylosaurus might be extinct in real life, it’s plush toy counterpart is alive and well. As a member of the ‘armored dinosaur’ category, this realistic stuffed animal, whose name means ‘fused lizard’ in greek, sports body armor in the form of spikes and bony plates called scutes. The Ankylosaurus was one of the last roaming dinosaurs prior to extinction, roaming the western United States and Alberta, Canada at the end of the Cretaceous period. While this dino grew to approximately 6-7 feet long, weighing about 13,000 pounds, its animal plush equivalent has been scaled down to 19 inches. Fun fact about this armored dino: Godzilla’s nemesis Anguirus was loosely based on the Ankylosaurus. Just as an Ankylosaurus’ body armor kept it well-protected from such predators, the durable and 100% surface-washable fabric of this plushie will keep your new kids toy protected from the wear and tear of all sorts of dino battles. Wild Republic has been developing animal plush and educational toys for kids of all ages since 1979, with a unique specialization in realistic stuffed animals.
