Edmontonia — size comparison — facts and sources

Edmontonia longiceps was a herbivorous nodosaurid of Late Cretaceous North America. It walked on four legs, with bony armour protecting its low body. Spikes projected along the front part of the trunk.

It took vegetation growing near the ground. Hadrosaurs, ceratopsians and carnivorous theropods also lived in its environment. The genus name relates to the research history of the Canadian rock layers yielding its remains.
