Fakte argëtuese
Edmontosaurus had a fleshy 'mitten' on its hands, formed by two long fingers wrapped together, which helped support its weight when walking on all fours.1
It could rear up on its hind legs to reach high branches, thanks to powerful hindlimbs and a long tail for balance.1
Edmontosaurus lived in huge herds of tens to hundreds of individuals, and many bonebeds with thousands of bones have been found.1
The first Edmontosaurus skeleton was put on display in Canada in 1913, making it the first mounted dinosaur skeleton in the country.1
Two species are known: E. regalis lived about 73 to 70 million years ago, and E. annectens lived about 68 to 66 million years ago.1
Edmontosaurus had a duck-like beak and hundreds of teeth that formed a grinding 'pavement' to chew tough plants.1

?Did Edmontosaurus have feathers?
No, mummified specimens show preserved skin with a bumpy texture, but no feathers have been found.4
?How fast could Edmontosaurus run?

?Why did Edmontosaurus have a duck beak?
Its broad, duck-like beak helped it cut loose food like twigs and leaves. It was a herbivore.34
?Where was Edmontosaurus found?
Fossils have been found across western North America, from Colorado to Alaska, especially in Canada and the United States.31

Yes, it lived in herds of tens to hundreds of individuals, as shown by many bonebeds with thousands of bones.1
Shkatërruesi i miteve
Miti: Some people think Edmontosaurus had a hollow crest on its head like some other duck-billed dinosaurs.
E vërteta: Edmontosaurus was a 'crestless' hadrosaur, meaning it did not have a large hollow crest. Its head was flat on top.1
