Carnivore or herbivore? A carnivore is an animal or dinosaur that eats meat. Herbivores do not eat meat. They eat plants. Meat eating dinosaurs had long, sharp pointed teeth. Can you circle the dinosaur with long, sharp teeth?

Plant eaters had either very small teeth or larger teeth with flat edges and some had beak-like mouths. Plant eaters also often had long necks to reach into the trees. Which dinosaurs do you think ate plants? Which dinosaur do you think used it's long neck to reach into the trees?

You can re-read the information about stegosauruses and tyrannosaurs rexes to help you.
