EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a breathtaking scene of a Parasaurolophus dinosaur herd. Through intricate computer artwork, the image brings to life these magnificent creatures that roamed North America during the Upper Cretaceous period, approximately 75-65 million years ago. The Parasaurolophus, belonging to the hadrosaurid or duck-billed dinosaur family, was an herbivore that thrived in grassy plains. Living in large herds, these majestic beings reached impressive lengths of up to 10 meters and weighed as much as two tonnes. One striking feature of the Parasaurolophus was its hollow crest on top of its head. Scientists believe that this unique structure allowed them to produce sounds by forcing air through it. This illustration beautifully captures their distinctive crests and provides insight into how they may have used them for communication or display purposes. As we gaze upon this prehistoric scene, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and diversity of Earth's ancient inhabitants. The image serves as a reminder of our planet's rich history and the incredible creatures that once walked its lands. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this momentous era through their exceptional computer artwork, allowing us to appreciate the wonders of paleontology and delve deeper into our understanding of extinct species like the Parasaurolophus.
