Ankylosaurid tails?




Just a question - were ankylosaurids able to swing their tails to the side and
upwards, or only sideways. And how quick movement it would be?

It could be a clue to their function - sideways swinging can be used both
against predator and conspecifics, but swinging upwards is good indication that
tails were employed against predatory dinosaurus.
