Edmontosuarus Fossil 

Edmontosuarus was a plant-eating dinosaur from the Hadrosuarid (duckbilled) family of dinosaurs. The two most recognized subspecies in their genus were Edmontosuarus Regalis and Edmontosuarus Annectens. 

The Edmontosuarus Regalis lived between 69.6 and 73.1 million years ago in Alberta, Canada, and the Annectens species lived between 66 and 68 million years ago in areas such as Saskatchewan, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Alberta. 

The Edmontosuarus dinosaur was among the largest herbivore dinosaurs of its time, easily surpassing the Tyrannosaurus Rex (T-Rex) in size. 

Levi Sternberg discovered and named the first specimen of the Endomontosuarus species in 1912, which Lawrence Lambe later described further in 1917. 

Since then, many discoveries have provided paleontologists with valuable insights into the characteristics and existence of these dinosaurs. 

The name Edmontosuarus meant (Lizards from Edmonton); the dinosaurs of this genus lived in the Late Cretaceous era and specifically in the Late Campanian to Lancian Epochs period.

Interesting Facts and Insights on the Edmontosuarus Fossil Collection

  • The Edomtosuarus dinosaurs were often categorized with the help of their long, flat head and duck-like-bill. Their body is robust and are supported by strong legs.

  • They had long and flat tails, and their skin was covered in scales. They were 39 feet long and could reach up to 10 feet.

  • They are one of the few dinosaurs discovered and found with preserved skin impressions that provide us with valuable knowledge about their physical features and appearance.

  • They were believed to be a herd of dinosaurs that lived and migrated in large groups.

They had closely packed teeth in their mouth, which helped them grind the plant remains or plants in general.
