Parasaurolophus
From the late Cretaceous period, this “near crested lizard” was a part of the hadrosaurid or duck-billed dinosaur family. It could walk on either two legs or four and enjoyed dining on plants and tree foliage. The purpose of its hollow crest is still up for debate (although the “snorkel” hypothesis has been soundly rejected).
