Hadrosaurus is a genus of hadrosaurid ornithopod dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 80 million to 78 million years ago. They weighed between 2 and 4 tons and were mainly quadrupedal dinosaurs, with the back legs bearing most of their weight. They could rear up on their hind legs to reach higher food sources and could also run on just their rear legs when escaping predators. Their teeth were highly complex, with up to 1400 of them. The forelimbs were not as robust as the hindlimbs but were long enough for standing or movement. Their limb structure resembled that of Kritosaurus, which lived at the same time and place, or that of later hadrosaurids such as Edmontosaurus.
