Ankylosaurus

Ankylosaurus (meaning "Fused Lizard") are neutral Mobs which are based on the real-life dinosaur Ankylosaurus magniventris. It lived in western North America, in the Late Cretaceous Period. It, and Stegosaurus, are the only armored dinosaurs in the mod.

Like most other Mobs in the mod, they do not spawn naturally in the world.

Appearance
Ankylosaurus is a big herbivore at roughly 3.5 blocks tall, and roughly 6.5 blocks long.

It's body is built like a tank, in that it is covered with massive knobs and plates of bone, known as osteoderms or scutes, that no bite can penetrate. These scutes are embedded in the skin, and protect the Ankylosaurus from harm. It is also famous for a huge gray tail club, that can easily shatter bones, and is used against predators. It's head is very large and has two huge eyes. It's legs and stomach are lighter colored and are it's only vulnerable parts. It's back is colored with black, and the rest of it's body is light brown. It is fully grown at 12 days.

Ankylosaurus currently has no different Subspecies.

Behavior
Ankylosaurus are neutral dinosaurs, with 67 heath. They will attack anything that provokes it, with 4 hearts of damage, and they cannot be hit with arrows. No other Mob will attack the Ankylosaurus.

They seem to stay idle longer than most other Mobs. They will eat the leaves of trees, flowers and their natural food Ferns. Ankylosaurus breed every 5 minutes. The breeding probability is handled by how many individuals are nearby.

Taming Ordering & Feeding
Ankylosaurus are tamable dinosaurs and can be tamed in the same way that all other tameable prehistoric reptiles. The player need to stay in a range of about 6 blocks of the egg, and the hatchling will be tamed.

If you aren't in the range then you'll have to hand-feed it until it is tamed. It can be ordered with the Drum by right-clicking it, or ordered without the drum with right-clicking the Ankylosaurus with a stick.

Ankylosaurus will find and eat any type of leaves or plants, especially Ferns. They will also eat from a Feeder, and can see them within a certain range of blocks. Ankylosaurus can be hand-fed wheat, melon, apple, bread, and potato.

Riding
Tamed Ankylosaurus are rideable after 12 days old. When ridden, Ankylosaurus won't go hungry and can't grow up. You have to right click it with a Whip to ride it. When riding, it can be controlled only if the player is holding the Whip.
