Bonapartesaurus
Bonapartesaurus was a duck-billed dinosaur that lived in what is now Argentina, about 72 to 66 million years ago. It walked on two legs or all fours and used its wide, toothless beak to snip off plants. This dinosaur was a hadrosaur, a group known for their amazing teeth that could grind up tough leaves.41

Prettige feite
Bonapartesaurus had very long neural spines on its tail vertebrae, up to four times the height of the backbone center. This may have supported a tall tail fin or sail.2
Its name honors José Bonaparte, a famous Argentine paleontologist who discovered many South American dinosaurs.1
The only known skeleton is a partial, articulated specimen that includes parts of the spine, hips, legs, and feet.1
Bonapartesaurus belongs to the group Saurolophini, which includes duck-billed dinosaurs like Saurolophus and Prosaurolophus.42
Scientists think Bonapartesaurus or its ancestors migrated from North America to South America during the Late Cretaceous.2
