Described as Stegosaurus armatus - this is among the top 3 Stegosaurus in the world and may be the most complete Stegosaurus specimen ever found. Ready for museum or private purchase, this fully prepared, 80%+ complete Jurassic dinosaur was discovered on our private ranch digsite by field paleontologist Bob Simon. The 19-ft. sub-adult specimen was named 'Sarah' in honor of the ranchowner's daughter. View Stegosaurus Sarah's In-Situ Bone Map
