Iguanodon Color by Tiresia93 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

My tribute to the second dinosaur to ever be named in a scientific publication, the one and only Iguanodon! This reconstruction is based on a large adult, about 10 meters (32 ft) long, though fragmentary remains seems to suggest that some individuals got even larger.

As always, the scale bar is 1 mt (32 ft) long, and the human silhouette is 1,8 mt (6 ft) tall.
