Datos curiosos
A huge nesting site was found in Montana in 1978, with nests, eggs, and baby skeletons.2
Baby Maiasaura were too big to fit inside eggs when they hatched, and their bones were not fully hardened.2
Hatchlings were about 0.5 metres (1.6 feet) long, while juveniles reached about 1 metre (3.3 feet).2
Hundreds of Maiasaura skeletons were found together in one ash bed, suggesting they lived in herds.2
Maiasaura could walk on two legs or all fours.1

Because fossils show that adults cared for their young in nests, which was rare for dinosaurs. The name means 'good mother lizard'.14
