Prettige feite
Gilmoreosaurus was named after Charles Whitney Gilmore, a famous American paleontologist who studied dinosaurs from Asia.2
Its fossils were found in the Iren Dabasu Formation in Inner Mongolia, which was once a floodplain with rivers and lots of plants.2
Gilmoreosaurus lived about 96 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.2
This dinosaur had a mix of features from older iguanodonts and later hadrosaurs, making it an important link in dinosaur evolution.2
The first fossils of Gilmoreosaurus were collected in 1922 and 1923 by a team from the American Museum of Natural History.2
Gilmoreosaurus might have been hunted by the fast-running tyrannosauroid Alectrosaurus, which lived in the same area.2
