The '''ThornTail Tribe''' are a herbivorous, peaceful tribe of dinosaurs on [[Sauria|Dinosaur Planet]] who live in [[ThornTail Hollow]], a location named after them, in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]''. They are based on a group of armor-plated dinosaurs known as [[wikipedia:Nodosaurid|Nodosaurs]]. The ThornTail are afraid of the dark, requiring lit beacons to feel safe at night. Their tribe is very peaceful, as they do not get involved with the war against the [[SharpClaw]]. The ThornTails seem to have a close relationship with the [[EarthWalker]]s, calling [[Queen EarthWalker]] their queen as well. The ThornTails have thick, brownish golden skin, spiked armor, and large beaks. They are herbivores and graze on the weeds and grass below. Their hind legs are larger than their front legs, rendering them slightly clumsy.

In ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'', the bodies of ThornTails infected by the [[Aparoids]] littered the ground of Sauria during the [[Aparoid Invasion]]. It appears that the ThornTails were incapable of defending themselves against the invading forces, but the ultimate fate of the tribe is not known.
