Pleasing Tourists
"Mainstream tourists should be very happy with the Stegosaurus; after all, it's certainly a dinosaur they've heard of, and it interacts well with other herbivores. Team Stegosaurus up with Brachiosaurus, Camarasaurus, Dryosaurus, and, of course, Kentrosaurus to please the fun lovers looking for playful herbivores carousing together. Thrill seekers want Stegosaurus battling it out with the likes of Allosaurus and Ceratosaurus. Dino nerds won't be visiting your park unless you have one of the dinosaurs mentioned above in the same pen as a Stegosaurus; any other dinosaur is from the wrong time period and will annoy a dino nerd's sensibilities."
