Denversaurus (meaning “Denver lizard”) is a genus of nodosaurid ankylosaur dinosaur. In particular it came from the Late Cretaceous of Western North America. Before more research it was treated as a junior synonym of Edmontonia by some taxonomists. However after current research also indicates that it is its own distinct nodosaurid genus.
Immense in size, this species of tank like dinosaur was a herbivore. As a result it would spend its time eating grass and other vegetation.
