  10. How I am supposed to remember all this? • If a thyreophoran walked beside you, it would scrape your thigh because of all the scutes on its body. • Ornithologists study birds and ornithopods have beaks like a duck (bird ) • The margins of your paper are around your paper and ceph- means head, so marginocephalians have stuff going on around their heads. • Sauropods are the largest dinosaurs, so if they stepped on you, you would be sore. • Theropods would eat you, so they are blood thirsty.
