Is that a Stegosaurus in your pants or are you just happy to see me?
Camouflage is a defence or tactic that is used to disguise a species appearance so they blend in with their surroundings & remain stealthy AF. This is vital for survival & also ambushing prey. It works both ways!
Knobby has decided to put a prehistoric twist on it!
We’ve hidden 4 dinosaurs in our latest drop! Can you spot what species of dinosaur lurk in our colourful camo design ‘I-Don’t-Think Theysaurus’? Let’s take a look & brush up on your dino knowledge while we are at it!
Brachiosaurus
The generic name of this dinosaur is Greek for ‘arm lizard’. Brachiosaurus’ are huge plant-eaters with long necks, long tails & a four-legged stance. They belonged to the group of dinosaurs known as Sauropods. They were one of the largest dinosaurs, with estimates suggesting it could reach up to 85 feet in length and weigh as much as 56 tonnes.
Pterodactyl
There’s always one wild card. This one isn’t a dinosaur! A Pterodactyl is a member of the Pterosauria order, a group of flying reptiles that existed alongside dinosaurs but were distinct from them. They had long, slender wings made up of a membrane of skin and muscle that stretched from an elongated fourth finger to their bodies. Their lightweight, hollow bones helped reduce their weight, making them agile fliers. Imagine getting swooped by one of these bad boys…
Stegosaurus
A herbivorous dinosaur with a small, beak-like mouth. Famous for its distinctive double row of bony plates running down its back and the formidable spikes at the end of its tail known as the ‘thagomizer’. These spikes were likely used as a defensive weapon.
Tyrannosaurus rex
Without a doubt the most famous of dinosaurs! The Tyrannosaurus rex is more ‘affectionately’ known as the T-Rex. Known for its massive size (well maybe not their arms) & dangerous reputation, this prehistoric beast takes the cake when it comes to identifiable dinosaurs. They could grow up to 40 feet in length, stand 12 feet tall & weigh between 9 to 12 tonnes. The bite force of a T-rex was capable of exerting up to 12,800 pounds of pressure.
