Maiasaura Dinosaur Fossils

At up to nine meters long Maiasaura was not amongst the largest known hadrosaurid dinosaurs,‭ ‬though it still tipped the scale to be considered big for its kind.‭ ‬Like with its hadrosaurid relatives,‭ ‬Maiasaura is thought to have been a primarily bipedal dinosaur,‭ ‬though one that was at least capable of balancing if not walking upon just its hind legs.‭ ‬The exact posture assumed was probably more dependent upon what the Maiasaura in question was actually doing at the time.‭ ‬Maiasaura had a low crest on top of its snout and because it is solid,‭ ‬this indicates that Maiasaura was one of the saurolophine hadrosaurs.
