Tsagantegia is a genus of medium-sized ankylosaurid dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period in Asia. The name means "from Tsagen-Teg" in reference to the location where the holotype skull of Tsagantegia was first discovered, which can be translated into English to mean "from White Mountain".
It was a medium to large-sized ankylosaur, with an estimated length of 6 to 7 m and a weight of 1 to 4 t. It was covered with thick bony armor, mostly shields and nodules, and a bony club at the end of the tail. It had a stunted quadrupedal body similar to that of its relatives. They were bulky quadrupeds with short, powerful limbs. It was a plant-eating dinosaur with small, loosely set triangular teeth similar to those of stegosaurs. It fed on vegetation at a height of 1 meter or less.
