What the Young Olorotitan in Tall Grass Shows

Only the young Olorotitan's head and neck rise clearly from the dense blades below, creating the impression that it is emerging from its grassy surroundings. Its cheerful face looks outward beneath rounded clouds. The tall grass fills the lower part of the scene and frames the small dinosaur on both sides.

Lesser-Known Facts About Young Hadrosaurs

Olorotitan was a crested hadrosaur, part of the plant-eating group often called duck-billed dinosaurs. Young hadrosaurs did not necessarily have the same fully developed crest shape as adults because such structures changed as the animals grew. Fossil nesting sites from related hadrosaurs suggest that some young members of this group remained together in nesting areas for a time.

Questions and Answers

What was the crest on Olorotitan's head used for?
Its hollow crest may have helped produce sounds and allowed individuals to recognize one another. It could also have served as a visual display.
What did Olorotitan eat?
It ate plants. Its beak could gather vegetation, while rows of tightly packed cheek teeth helped grind the food.
Did young dinosaurs look exactly like their parents?
Not always. Their body proportions and decorative structures could change as they matured, just as young animals today often look different from adults.
