A Virtual Tour of the NMNH:  Dinosaurs
Edmontosaurus annectens

Edmontosaurus annectens


70 million years old, Cretaceous
Wyoming

One of the last-surviving dinosaurs, this duckbilled giant grew as long as 13 m (43 ft). This nearly complete skeleton is a "type" fossil--the original from which the species was named. A fossil skull, also on display, shows that the plant-eating duckbills had hundreds of teeth arranged in several rows.
