List of Dinosaurs That Were Herbivores and When They Lived

  • Buffer

Some dinosaurs were carnivores but most were herbivores meaning they ate plants. This is true for all animal populations. Herbivorous dinosaurs which included sauropods, ankylosaurs, stegosaurs, hadrosaurs, pachycephalosaurs, ornithopods, ceratopsians and titanosaurs vastly outnumbered meat-eaters (carnivores). Below is a list of dinosaurs that were classified as herbivores.
