Pleasing Tourists

"At first glance, visitors might think a Kentrosaurus is a Stegosaurus. It's like a mini-version of the more popular dinosaur and may impress a few uninformed guests. Dino nerds, however, want to see Kentrosaurus with its late Jurassic brethren like Camarasaurus, Ceratosaurus, and Dryosaurus. Kentrosaurus get along with all herbivores, especially Stegosaurus, so it's not a problem adding them to a multiple-herbivore compound to please the fun lovers. On the other hand, thrill seekers will look elsewhere for the more violent dinosaurs."

Trivia

Despite being recommended to live in nearby large herds of animals, Kentrosaurus tends to panic even close to other Herbivores, in fact, it's the only animal who does that.
Despite socializing well with Stegosaurus, Kentrosaurus didn't live in the same region as Stegosaurus, making that connection false.
Kentrosaurus is the most resistant of the small herbivores Health Wise.
Kentrosaurus has one Audio Track that isn't used in the game: "Kentro Roar 01"
The addition of 01 in the end of "Kentro Roar" implies that at some point, Kentrosaurus had more than one audio file for its Roaring animation.
Just like Stegosaurus, Kentrosaurus has the tail posture based on the Early Maquette of The Lost World's Stegosaurus, with lowered tails.
For some reason, the Kentrosaurus has a huge gap on its tail in between the first pair of spikes and the smaller ones, looking by the Concept Art, it seems to be an intentional design choice.
