It was in the movie Disney's Dinosaur as a herd member along with being part of the tie-in ride at Dinoland USA, Disney World by the same name. Wheeler, P.E., 1978. Elaborate CNS cooling structure in large dinosaurs Journal of Nature, vol. 275, on pp. 441–443. Many early suggestions focused on adaptations for an aquatic lifestyle, following the hypothesis that hadrosaurids were amphibious, a common line of thought until the 1960s. Thus, Alfred Sherwood Romer proposed it served as a snorkel, [28] Martin Wilfarth that it was an attachment for a mobile proboscis used as a breathing tube or for food gathering, [29] Charles M. Sternberg that it served as an airtrap to keep water out of the lungs, [30] and Ned Colbert that it served as an air reservoir for prolonged stays underwater. [31] The clones resembled the species Parasaurolophus walkeri, however, they are slightly shorter than the original animal, being 10 meters (33 feet) in length instead of 11.45 meters (37 feet). [2] Although the clones are capable of walking on all fours and two legs, they mostly stood upright, nearly dragging its tail, unlike the original.

Sullivan, Robert M. and Williamson, Thomas E., 1996. A new skull of Parasaurolophus (long-crested form) from New Mexico: external and internal (CT scans) features and their functional implications, from the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, vol. 16, issue 3, Suppl. pp.68A. Parasaurolophus (pronounced / ˌpærəsɔˈrɒləfəs/ PARR-ə-saw-ROL-ə-fəs, commonly also / ˌpærəˌsɔrəˈloʊfəs/ PARR-ə-SAWR-ə-LOH-fəs; meaning "near crested lizard" in reference to Saurolophus) commonly shortened as Parasaur is a genus of ornithopod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous Period of what is now North America, about 83-73 million years ago. It was a herbivore that walked both as a biped and a quadruped. Three species are recognized: P. walkeri (the type species), P. tubicen, and the short-crested P. cyrtocristatus. Remains are known from Alberta, Canada, and New Mexico and Utah, USA. It was first described in 1922 by William Parks from a skull and partial skeleton in Alberta. Parasaurolophus, a herbivorous dinosaur, exhibits a generally peaceful and non-threatening demeanor. They are often observed gathering in both small and large herds, typically found in expansive grasslands, forests, or near watering holes. These dinosaurs are primarily grazers, calmly foraging for vegetation. Parasaurolophus has also displayed a propensity for harmonious coexistence with other herbivorous species, such as Triceratops, Sinoceratops, sauropods like brachiosaurus, and Apatosaurus.

Analysis: next to the disappointing Electronic Spinosaurus and the various repaints in the TLWS1 toy line, this wonderful sculpt once again proves Kenner hasn’t lost its touch at designing great dinosaur sculpts. This is without a doubt one of the best models in this toy line and a great addition to the range of herbivorous dinosaur species made for the JP toy lines. Though a hatchling Parasaurolophus was made for the JPS2 toy line, an adult model wasn’t created (unlike for most hatchlings of the two JP toy lines). This model redeems that error on Kenner’s part, with a vengeance.

A digital acoustic model of the lambeosaurine hadrosaur Parasaurolophus tubicen from the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, vol. 18, issue 3, Suppl. p. 38A. Variations: Although most collectors don't consider this a true variation, the Parasaurolophus' head paint job often varies from a very pale red to a bright red, as seen here. It does, however, match 'Crash' McCreery's artwork of the Parasaurolophus, whereas the female has very little red on her head, and the male has a lot. Originally, the stamped scene in Jurassic Park III was to feature solely Parasaurolophus with their model reused from The Lost World: Jurassic Park, but Corythosaurus was added to the stamped when director Joe Johnston and visual effects supervisor Jim Mitchell felt there needed to be more variety. The Corythosaurus was created from the Parasaurolophus model from The Lost World: Jurassic Park. [39] The Parasaurolophus from the film received a new color scheme.

Computer modeling of a well-preserved specimen of P. tubicen, with more complex air passages than those of P. walkeri, has allowed the reconstruction of the possible sound its crest produced. [38] The main path resonates at around 30 Hz, but the complicated sinus anatomy causes peaks and valleys in the sound. [39] Cooling function [ ] During the events of 2022, several of these hadrosaurs were captured and transferred to the Biosyn Sanctuary, where they can be studied. A herd of original and accurate Parasaurolophus were running threw the snowy field in Sierra Nevada, chased by Owen and his DFW guys riding on the horse, leading them to the sanctuary. One of them escape the herd, leading to Owen being on a course and eventually capture it, allowing Owen to touch its face and tell him that everything will be okay and that he will be fine. As Owen, Shep and Rosa herded the Parasaur, they are confronted by Rainn Delacourt, disguised as a DFW officer and showing a fake badge, and accused of illegal poaching. Owen eventually gave in after a gun confrontation and handed the dinosaur to Delacourt. [14]Weishampel, David B., 1981.

In instances where a Parasaurolophus finds itself in solitude, it exhibits territorial conduct through actively attempting to ward off individuals of smaller stature, such as campers. Alternatively, this behavior might stem from the herbivore being startled by the sudden appearance of children, prompting an instinctual desire to intimidate and drive them away. Oddly, the section "Exploring Jurassic Park Part 2" of the Topps comic Jurassic Park II and the Jurassic Park Topps card for Parasaurolophus states that it was cut from Jurassic Park [21] [17] even though a herd can be seen at the Watering Hole with Brachiosaurus.

[5] However, it was soon reassessed as a member of the lambeosaurine subfamily of hadrosaurids— Saurolophus is an hadrosaurine. [9] It is usually interpreted as a separate offshoot of the lambeosaurines, distinct from the helmet-crested Corythosaurus, Hypacrosaurus, and Lambeosaurus. [4] [10] [11] Its closest known relative appears to be Charonosaurus, a lambeosaurine with a similar skull (but no complete crest yet) from the Amur region of northeastern China, [12] and the two may form a clade Parasaurolophini. [11] P. cyrtocristatus, with its short, rounder crest, may be the most basal of the three known Parasaurolophus species, [11] or it may represent subadult or female specimens of P. tubicen.
