Description[]
Iguanodon was an ornithopod dinosaur from between the mid-Jurassic and Late Cretaceous periods. Iguanodon is known for its large, spiked thumbs. A number of possible uses have been suggested fro these thumbs, including defense from predators, breaking into seeds and fruits, or stripping leaves from branches.
Discovery[]
Iguanodon was first discovered in 1822 in Tilgate Forest, Cuckfield, England by Gideon Mantell. The find consisted of several fossilized teeth. Initially dismissed as the teeth of fish or a rhinoceros, it took until 1824 for Iguanodon to be formally recognized. A more complete specimen was discovered in 1834, in Kent. The spiked thumb, one of the Iguanodon's most defining features, was initially assumed to be attached to the nose, but subsequent discoveries revealed its true function.
Paleoecology[]
Analysis of Iguanodon jaws suggests that it was able to eat tough plant material by grinding its food.

Trivia[]

  • Iguanodon is currently the only ornithopod capable of fighting carnivores.
  • Iguanodon supports its own unique animation set.
    • Iguanodon eats by picking leaves with its forearms.
    • When killing a small carnivore, the carnivore tries to pounce on the Iguanodon from the side but gets killed with a bone-cracking kick by the Iguanodon.
    • When killing a medium carnivore, the carnivore lunges at the Iguanodon but gets grabbed and stabbed by the Iguanodon's right thumb claw.
