Edmontosaurus in the Meadow

The broad-bodied herbivore appears beside a tree in an open meadow. Gentle hills stretch across the background, and two clouds hang in the sky. The setting places this duck-billed dinosaur in a calm landscape with nearby vegetation.

Meadow Life and Edmontosaurus

Edmontosaurus had a wide, flattened beak suited to gathering plant material, but it also possessed tightly packed teeth for grinding food. Scientists have found evidence that it could move on either two or four legs, depending on what it was doing. Open ground would have allowed a large animal to travel between feeding areas while keeping a clear view of its surroundings.

Realistic Colors for Edmontosaurus and the Meadow

  • Edmontosaurus skin: its true color is unknown; natural browns, olive greens, and dusty tans are plausible
  • Beak: muted brown, dark gray, or a horn-like beige
  • Meadow vegetation: fresh green, yellow-green, or straw-colored in a dry season
  • Tree trunk: brown or gray-brown, sometimes with reddish areas
  • Hills and clouds: hills may be green or tan, while clouds are usually white to light gray
Questions and answers

Questions and Answers

Why is Edmontosaurus called a duck-billed dinosaur?
Its snout was broad and flattened, creating a shape that resembles a duck's bill. Unlike a duck, however, it had many teeth farther back in its jaws for processing plants.
Could Edmontosaurus walk on all four legs?
Yes. Its body was built for movement on four legs, but it could also rise and travel on its hind legs.
What plants might it have eaten in a meadow-like habitat?
It could browse on leaves, twigs, seeds, and other available vegetation. The exact menu would have depended on the plants growing in its environment.
