5.6" Hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus) Femur Section - Montana

This is a fragment of upper femur from Edmontosaurus annectens, from the Hell Creek Formation, Dawson County, Montana. The femur section is 5.6" wide and 6.1" wide. This specimen has very well preserved compact (cortical) bone and soft inner (marrow) bone.

Hadrosaurs are frequently referred to as duck-billed dinosaurs and are members of the Ornithischian family Hadrosauridae. They were fairly common herbivores that roamed Asia, Europe, and North America during the Upper Cretaceous Period. Many species of Hadrosaurs had distinctive crests on their heads, some of which had air-filled chambers that may have produced a distinct sound. These crests may have been used for both audio and visual display purposes.
