Geoworld Dino Dan Parasaurolophus
The Dino Dan Parasaurolophus is a thrilling addition to the collection of any young paleontologist. This fascinating plant-eating dinosaur lived 76-1/2 million years ago, and its remains have been found in Alberta (Canada), New Mexico, and Utah (USA). Parasaurolophus means ''near crested lizard'' because of its bizarre head adornment. Like most of the dinosaurs, the skeleton of Parasaurolophus is incompletely known. The creature's length is estimated to be 31 feet, and its weight is estimated at about 2-1/2 tons. The skull measured about 5 feet in length, including the crest. The Parasaurolophus may have walked on either two legs while running, or all four while foraging for food. The Dino Dan Parasaurolophus Set includes a colorful model of the Parasaurolophus, a Dino Dan fact sheet with a secret access code that unlocks exclusive bonus content on the Dino Dan website, plus plenty of scientific information.
