Tenontosaurus beneath hanging vines
The dinosaur stands upright and looks toward a leafy vine overhead. Branches and leaves hang from both sides and across the upper part of the scene, while small clumps of plants grow near the ground. Its raised posture brings its head closer to the vegetation.
Curious facts about Tenontosaurus and feeding
Tenontosaurus was a plant-eating dinosaur with a long, strong tail and a beak suited to cropping vegetation. It usually moved on four limbs but could likely rise onto its hind legs, which may have helped it reach plants growing above ground level. Teeth farther back in its mouth processed the plant material after the beak gathered it.
Possible natural colors of this prehistoric scene
- Tenontosaurus body: its exact colors are unknown, but subdued browns, greens, or grayish tones are reasonable possibilities for a large land animal
- Beak: a keratin covering may have appeared tan, brown, gray, or nearly black, much like the beaks of living animals
- Claws: likely pale horn, brown, charcoal, or black
- Vine leaves and branches: living leaves are commonly green, while woody stems range from tan to deep brown
- Ground plants: greens may vary from yellow-green on fresh growth to darker green on mature leaves
