Tenontosaurus in a Prehistoric Floodplain Swamp
Tenontosaurus was an herbivorous dinosaur characterized by its exceptionally long, stiffened tail. This illustration depicts the creature positioned beside a quiet swamp environment populated by ancient horsetail vegetation thriving in wet soil.
Unique Characteristics of Tenontosaurus
Tenontosaurus lived during the Early Cretaceous period in marshy coastal environments across North America. Its tail was reinforced by strong tendons, making up more than half of the dinosaur's total length of twenty feet. Fossils of Tenontosaurus are frequently found near remains of the predator Deinonychus, indicating it was a primary prey species.
