Description
Paleo Profile: Edmontosaurus regalis. This giant duck-billed dinosaur is synonymously known as Anatotitan and Anatosaurus. It is called a duck-billed dinosaur due to its broad, flattened beak. This probably aided in the collection of foliage. Edmontosaurus are known to live in herds and travel vast distances. Their ability to eat large amounts of vegetation was aided with a large battery of teeth constantly being replaced throughout the animal's life. Fossils of this animal bare bite marks from what scientists believe came from the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex, thought to have been this animal's main predator. In rare finds, a "mummy" hadrosaur of close relation to edmontosaurus has been found. Allowing scientists to see large portions of hadrosaur skin. The skin was covered in non-overlapping scales varying in different sizes. With these finds, paleoartists are able to add a little more detail to these ancients beasts. Enjoy!
