#FossilFriday- "Duck for dinner?!" #Tyrannosaurusrex takes a bite on an #edmontosaurus snoot, leaves a tooth for good measure! Alternative exhibit titles were-"Duck, Duck, Goose", "What the Duck?!", "Unlucky Ducky", but alas, John doesn't support my tomfoolery & shot them down :( #paleontology

Happy #FossilFriday! Over 66 million years ago this duck-billed #Edmontosaurus (MOR 1627) came face to face with #Tyrannosaurus. Today, the tooth embedded in its snout tells the tale of this Cretaceous encounter. Specimen from lands managed by by Bureau of Land Management.

"The Head Crusher"
A newly described #Edmontosaurus skull with a #Tyrannosaurus tooth embedded in its snout has been described, implying predation and consumption by the T. rex, much like jaguars and crocodiles that bite skulls to the point of crushing the bones!

A black and white sketch of Edmontosaurus regalis, with the side, most of the legs, and most of the face blanked out.

I wanted to sketch out an illustration showing the preserved skin of #Edmontosaurus compiled so far. This is meant to be E. regalis, but researching this I found out most of the skin known is actually from annectens,

Anatotitan: Prehistoric Animal of the Week Today we are checking out one of the largest and most well studied of the duck-billed dinosaurs. Enter _Edmontosaurus_! --- _Edmontosaurus annectens_ in watercolors by Christopher DiPiazza. _Edmontosaurus_ was a hadrosaur ("duck-billed") dinosaur that could grow to at least 39 feet (12 meters) long from beak to tail that lived during the late Cretaceous period in what is now western North America. There are currently two recognized species within the genus, _Edmontosaurus regalis_ and E _dmontosaurus annectens_. _E. regalis_ lived between 73 and 70 million years ago in what is now Alaska, Colorado, and Alberta, and had a more robust snout. _Edmontosaurus annectens_ lived between 68 and 66 million years ago in what is now Montana, South Dakota, and Wyoming, and had a longer, lower snout. The genus name translates to "Edmonton Reptile/Lizard" in reference to Edmonton, Alberta, where the first specimen was found. _Edmontosaurus_ also includes the dinosaurs that used to be called _Anatosaurus_ and _Anatotitan_ , which were initially thought to be distinct taxa. (Part of me wishes _Anatotitan_ , which translates to "Duck Titan" was still valid because the name "duck titan" brings me joy.) --- Skeletons on display at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. Before we go further, describing this dinosaur, I think it's important to mention that one thing that makes _Edmontosaurus_ particularly special, is the fact that we know an incredible amount about it compared to other dinosaurs. This is because in addition to skeletons, we have not one, but SEVERAL mummified specimens that have been unearthed over the years. Thanks to this we know more about _Edmontosaurus_ ' life appearance than almost any other prehistoric dinosaur. So as you read the rest of this post if you notice I am able to describe _Edmontosaurus_ in much more detail than normal, this is why. --- Image from Sereno's recent paper (referenced below) showcasing the fleshy sail and lizard-like spines down the midline of a recently described _Edmontosaurus_ mummy. Out of all the hadrosaurs, which are characterized by having wide, flat bills in the front of their mouths, _Edmontosaurus annectens_ had arguably the "duckiest" bill, which was particularly wide and almost squared off to a degree. Initially hadrosaurs were believed to have been semi-aquatic, behaving like the ducks, swimming in fresh water and eating water plants. Since then, we have found out that he bill of a hadrosaur, including _Edmontosaurus_ , wasn't really similar to a duck's at all. Thanks to a mummified specimen of _Edmontosaurus_ which preserved the keratin that was growing over the skull in life, we know that the flat duck-like beak was only the shape of the skull and the whole beak would have been bigger and more downturned in life. This appears to be more of an adaptation for clipping tough plant material, including pine needles and twigs which would the be processed in the back of the jaws by literally hundreds of small teeth that were arranged tightly together in units called _dental batteries_. These dental batteries were the dinosaur's way to grind food like some mammals do today with molars. Like all reptiles, if a tooth became too worn down, it would fall out and be replaced with a fresh tooth. Because of this hadrosaur teeth are among some of the most common fossils in locations where they lived. --- _Edmontosaurus_ specimen on display at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. This individual preserved soft tissue, including some of the beak's keratin. --- Dental battery on the lower jaw of _Edmontosaurus_. There is a mummified specimen of _Edmontosaurus_ _regalis_ which preserved the skin around the neck, which appears to have had a wide, wrinkled texture. This same specimen also shows the animal had a fleshy crest, like a chicken's wattle, on its head. We don't know if all members of the species had this feature or if it was just in one sex, nor do we know if it was present in _Edmontosaurus annectens_. That being said there are also mummies of _Edmontosaurus annectens_ which show us a lot about its scaly skin, including a fleshy sail-like crest that ran from the back of its neck down to the base of its tail, at which point it had a single row of triangular spines running down the midline of the tail, similar spines in some modern lizards, takes over. _Another Edmontosaurus annectens_ mummy, which preserved the skin on the tail, shows the mosaic-like scales are arranged in banding patterns, which may imply the dinosaur had colored stripes on its tail in life. --- Photograph and graphic showing the skin texture and fleshy crest of _Edmontosaurus regalis_. Like all hadrosaurs, _Edmontosaurus_ would had robust hind legs with three toes on each foot and slender, yet strong front limbs. It likely would have been able to walk on all fours or on its hind legs depending on what its needs were. Each hand had five fingers, but the middle three were fused together and ended in one large hoof-like claw. The first finger also had a claw and jutted out to the side while the fifth also jutted out on the other end but had no claw. When the animal was on all fours the middle three digits that formed the hoof would support most of the weight. The same mummy that showed the back crest mentioned earlier also preserved the feet, showing _Edmontosaurus'_ nails were also extremely hoof-like and its toes were heavily padded. --- Photograph of the mummified hand of _Edmontosaurus annectens_. Note the large hoof that encompasses the middle three fingers. You an also see the fine scaly skin and folds on the wrists. From paper by Drumheller et al. referenced below. _Edmontosaurus_ possessed an extremely muscular tail that was also reinforced with boney tendons running along its spine, causing the tail to be stiff and easier to hold off the ground in life. The huge tail would have acted as a counterbalance to the dinosaur's torso as it walked or ran on its hind legs. The tail could also have been an extremely effective weapon against potential predators or even members of its own species. This is important to note, since I feel far too often hadrosaurs are depicted as fodder for meat-eating dinosaurs simply because they didn't have obvious weapons like horns, clubs, or spikes. In reality they likely were probably more than capable of defending themselves and a healthy adult _Edmontosaurus_ would have been a challenging target for even the hungriest tyrannosaur. --- _Nanuqsaurus_ eyes a family of _Edmontosaurus regalis_. The adult _Edmontosaurus_ would have been too large and dangerous for the tyrannosaur to attempt to hunt. That's all for this week.

Dr Dean Lomax - Palaeontologist This #FossilFriday goes hard. With a bang! Well, erm, dinosaur sex. To celebrate, let’s talk about one of the most important dinosaur tails reported in the sensational paper published this week in iScience: “Warwick’s Duck”. This is a tail belonging to the dinosaur Edmontosaurus, discovered in 2009 by Dr. Denver Fowler and his dad, Warwick Fowler, in the Hell Creek Formation, collected for the Museum of the Rockies. The specimen is now loaned to the Badlands Dinosaur Museum in Dickinson, North Dakota. The importance of this specimen is the extreme degree of lesions and fractures in the neural spines of the vertebrae. Their tips are, in fact, broken, fused to the left side, sometimes showing degrees of infection, all caused by an external pressing force acting vertically to diagonally. What’s even more incredible is that in this specimen you can recognize different “pathological events”: on the same spine, including indications of older fractures together with newer fractures, separated by a certain amount of time. This is recognizable by the degree of roughness/smoothness on the surface of the pathologically newly formed bones. There is a repeated diagonal pressing action on the anterior part of a tail… and, well, what could it be? The study attempted to understand this and, uh, well it most likely (but not definitely!) is the result of mating. The male mounts the female, and the sheer weight of the body presses, stresses and breaks the tip of the spines in the female! Ouch. What an awesome study led by Dr Filippo Bertozzo. As a big chunk of my research and area of interest focuses on prehistoric animal behaviour, I found the research fascinating. Who doesn’t love dinosaur sex lives?! I included research on dinosaur sex in THE SECRET LIVES OF DINOSAURS, which Filippo reviewed and loved! Illustration by Emiliano Troco. Skeletal reconstruction by Ivan Iofrida.

So this #Dinosaur #Edmontosaurus, "Warwick's Duck", has an "extreme degree of lesions and fractures in the neural spines of the vertebrae", caused "by an external pressing force acting vertically to diagonally" with different "pathological events". My take on what happened... 🧵1/2

Happy #FossilFriday! The teeth of #Tyrannosaurus were a scary sight for all the #dinosaurs in the #Cretaceous #HellCreek ecosystem. Tyrannosaurus bite marks have been found on the bones of #Triceratops, #Edmontosaurus, and even other Tyrannosaurus!

Happy Halloween from Velo!

This year he wanted to be an Edmontosaurus in honour of the recent discoveries of some mummies found in the Lance Creak Formation.

So new changes in it's body: •A fleshy crest behind it's head and on it's neck, •A small sail that covers the neck up until the hip, •Small spikes running from the hip to the tip of it's tail, •Hind legs have hoof-like feet.

A sketch of an Edmontosaurus Annectens I did as it had some changes in it's body which is based on the new discovery from few days ago.
