Hadrosaurus, a remarkable hadrosaurid ornithopod dinosaur from North America, roamed the Late Cretaceous Period around 80 to 78 million years ago. Weighing between 2 to 4 tons, this dinosaur primarily moved on all fours, with powerful hind legs supporting its weight. It could rear up on its hind legs to reach higher vegetation and even sprint using just its rear limbs to escape danger. Its jaw housed up to 1,400 complex teeth, showcasing impressive feeding adaptability. With forelimbs strong enough to assist in movement, Hadrosaurus resembles both the contemporaneous Kritosaurus and later hadrosaurids like Edmontosaurus—making it a fascinating piece of prehistoric life to explore.
