Lurdusaurus

LOOR-doo-SAW-rus, “heavy lizard”

Lurdusaurus was like a heavily built Iguanodon. Some researchers think that it may have spent much of its time in water, feeding on plants the way a moose does today. Lurdusaurus had spread-out toes, which helped when walking on muddy surfaces. It had a very long neck for an iguanodontian.
