of a dinosaur they say used its unusual tail as a deadly weapon.</span> <span data-start-time='13750' data-end-time='24833'>Researchers say the dog-sized creature had a tail weapon unlike those seen on any other animal. </span> <span data-start-time='24833' data-end-time='34333'>The tail had a series of “blades” on each side that could be used to cut its enemies.</span> <span data-start-time='34333' data-end-time='46500'>At first, the scientists thought the plant-eating dinosaur might have belonged to a similar species called stegosaurus. </span> <span data-start-time='46500' data-end-time='60104'>But after studying pieces of skull and examining DNA, the scientists decided the dinosaur must be from a new species.</span> <span data-start-time='60104' data-end-time='70188'>The researchers named the dinosaur stegouros because of its similarities to stegosaurus.</span> <span data-start-time='70188' data-end-time='77229'>The find is described in a study recently published in Nature. </span> <span data-start-time='77229' data-end-time='82188'>Alex Vargas was the lead writer of the study. </span> <span data-start-time='82188' data-end-time='97042'>He told The Associated Press that the animal’s blade-like tail could be used as a cutting weapon similar to those used by Aztec warriors.</span> <span data-start-time='97042' data-end-time='105958'>“It’s a really unusual weapon,” said Vargas, a scientist with the University of Chile. </span> <span data-start-time='105958' data-end-time='115688'>He said information on the species should be added to books on prehistoric animals for children. </span> <span data-start-time='115688' data-end-time='120563'>“It just looks crazy,” Vargas added.</span> <span data-start-time='120563' data-end-time='132229'>The bones, or fossil, is from about 72 million to 75 million years ago, the team said. </span> <span data-start-time='132229' data-end-time='140792'>Researchers believe the animal is part of the ankylosaur family of dinosaurs. </span> <span data-start-time='140792' data-end-time='149438'>They are believed to have walked the Earth throughout the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. </span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div class='control-buttons'><button title='Back' class='back'
