Hadrosaurus foulkii (HAD-ro-SAW-us FOLK-ee-eye)
A New Jersey Native

In 1858, amateur naturalist William Parker Foulke discovered a dinosaur skeleton in Haddonfield, New Jersey, just 12 miles from today’s Edelman Fossil Park & Museum. Foulke alerted Joseph Leidy, a leading scientist in Philadelphia, and together they recovered 49 bones and teeth from a single creature. It was the most complete dinosaur skeleton yet discovered as well as a new species, which Leidy named Hadrosaurus foulkii.

Hadrosaurs are often called “duckbill” dinosaurs because of their wide, toothless beaks yet, among all dinosaurs, they were not closely related to birds. Hadrosaurs were champion chewers. Their jaws moved up and down and side-to-side. This crunch-and-grind action efficiently broke down plants, freeing abundant nutrients.
