Description
One of our entries in the Spring Caching Carnival 2018
For this year's cache race, we purchased six dinosaurs and enlisted the help of a dinosaur expert - our eight-year-old nephew - to indentify them. We have it on good authority that this particular specimen is a tuojiangosaurus multispinus.
From Wikipedia:
Physically similar to the North American Stegosaurus, Tuojiangosaurus is the best understood of the Chinese stegosaurids.[1] It was around 7 metres (23 ft) long and 2 metres (6.6 ft) high. In 2010, Gregory S. Paul estimated the weight of a 6.5 metres long Tuojiangosaurus at 2.8 tonnes.[2]
Bunky's Tuojiangosaurus doesn't have a log book, and just bears its unique cache code: GA12668. Please help us in the race by moving it to a new location and posting a 'moved' log with the new coordinates.

Your geocache would ike to join the secret activities so it may not move for a little while but it will be safe and sound and will be moved along (and hopefully logged quite a bit) in the not too distance future.

He was sleeping off the effect of fine Barossa wine, and is now ready to head south to a new location.
Looks more like a Greater Eastern Mongrel Lizard to me.
