With a swinging spiky armoured tail, Zuul-the-dino could really do some damage in its time.
Beyond having a cool name — the four-legged beast takes its moniker from the demon in the 1984 film Ghostbusters, with it meaning “destroyer of shins” — scientists once thought the plated tail was designed for protection.
It doesn’t take a lot of imagination to envisage a scene in which Zuul would ward off predators, like the menacing Tyrannosaurus Rex, by violently swishing its heavy-duty tail.
