The Iguanodon in its leafy grove
This plant-eating dinosaur moves among ginkgo trees and prehistoric fruit, with the grove forming the setting around it. Iguanodon is recognized by the prominent spike on each thumb, along with a beak at the front of its mouth and rows of teeth farther back. Its sturdy limbs could support different kinds of movement as it traveled and fed.
Lesser-known facts about feeding in a grove
Iguanodon had complex teeth that wore against one another and helped process tough plant matter. Its beak could crop vegetation before the food passed to the teeth at the sides of the jaw. Ginkgo seeds have fleshy outer coverings that may look like fruit, but botanically they are seeds rather than true fruits.
