Stegosaurus is a famous genus of extinct large herbivorous dinosaurs that lived during the late Jurassic period. A Stegosaurus appears in the 1933 film King Kong, as well as various other Kong media, and photos and models of Stegosaurs appear in the Godzilla franchise.
History
King Kong (1933)
While the crew of the Venture pursued King Kong through the jungles of Skull Island, they came upon a foraging Stegosaurus, which charged at them when it noticed their presence. Before it could draw too close, Carl Denham incapacitated it with a gas bomb. The creature fell over from the impact of the explosion and writhed on the ground for a bit before Denham approached and shot the beast in the head.

At some point after the death of Kong, A Stegosaur was found by a Meat-Eater while drinking at a popular watering hole.
