Hell yeah, Ankylosaurus! That little doom wagon has been my favorite since I was a little kid!
Really surprised to see that he inspired the post to begin with, as most people don't know what it is!
Ankies rock! Check out this mummified then petrified Nodosaur (a type of Ankylosaur)

Heck yeah! Borealopelta in the house!!!! Have you seen this in person? I was thoroughly intimidated! It was like looking at a dragon or something. So cool!
I have not been up to Alberta yet. I've been wanting to take my son
The Tyrrell has some fantastic displays! Their Tyrannosaur section really makes you empathize with the Jurassic Park lawyer. Black Beauty is particularly magnificent. I highly recommend the town of Drumheller as well. Lots of wacky dino statues around town. They lean heavily into the motif.
The Tyrrell is exactly the museum I'm after. Thank you for the further recommendations!

Agreed. It's mind blowing

Heck yeah! !Ankmemes@sh.itjust.works is calling
