Fun Facts
Did you know Hadrosaurs were plant-eating dinosaurs? That’s right, they were herbivores, using their unique duck-like bills to snip off leaves, twigs, and fruits from plants in their forest homes. Some Hadrosaurs even had amazing crests on their heads! Scientists believe these crests might have been used for making sounds, helping them communicate with other Hadrosaurs, or even attracting a mate. They often lived in large herds, much like modern-day elephants or deer, moving through the forests together. Imaging seeing hundreds of these amazing creatures roaming through the ancient woodlands!
