Gentle Maiasaura Angled Beneath the Sun
A large Maiasaura stands in a gentle posture angled under a shining sun. The calm stance and simple sun overhead set the scene for this peaceful dinosaur.
The Caring Nature of Maiasaura
Maiasaura is famous in paleontology because its name translates to good mother lizard. Fossil sites in Montana revealed massive nesting grounds where adults brought food to their newly hatched babies until the offspring were mature enough to forage independently. This discovery provided the first strong evidence that dinosaurs nursed and protected their young in communal colonies.
