Yes, indeed!  How many are there with this type of anatomy and only minor differences? |

If you don't have at least a skin print or sample I think they should just go with brown or gray.

Want to compose a funny song? Try 'Microsoft Copilot'. It composed this dino song for me:
Title: "Dino Groove"
Verse 1
In a prehistoric land, where time was slow,
Dinosaurs roamed, putting on a show.
Tyrannosaurus Rex, fierce and grand,
Stomping through the jungle, ruling the land.
Chorus
Dino groove, ancient moves,
Stegosaurus swaying to the rhythm of the groove.
Pterodactyls soaring high, catching the breeze,
Dancing with the ferns and the towering trees.
Verse 2
Triceratops with its mighty horns,
Herbivore grace in the early morn.
Velociraptors hunting in packs,
Chasing their prey, leaving tracks.
Chorus
Dino groove, ancient moves,
Stegosaurus swaying to the rhythm of the groove.
Pterodactyls soaring high, catching the breeze,
Dancing with the ferns and the towering trees.
Verse 3
Brachiosaurus stretching its neck,
Nibbling leaves, a gentle trek.
Ankylosaurus armoured and strong,
Keeping the balance all day long.
Chorus
Dino groove, ancient moves,
Stegosaurus swaying to the rhythm of the groove.
Pterodactyls soaring high, catching the breeze,
Dancing with the ferns and the towering trees.
Verse 4
As the sun sets, the Mesozoic beat,
Echoes through time, a primal feat.
Dino groove forever in our hearts,
Legends of the past, where music starts.

Originally named as a species of Troodon by Swedish palaeontologist, Anders Birger Bohlin, in 1953. Mr. Bohlin later renamed it as a species of Stegoceras. Eventually recognized as a new genus and named Sinocephale by Canadian palaeontologist, David C.

I'd stay away from that hollow tail because I'll bet it works like a whip but it seems to have a large head.
