EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable fossil collar plates of an Edmontonia dinosaur, a herbivorous creature that roamed the Earth approximately 76 to 78 million years ago during the Upper Cretaceous period. Discovered in Alberta, Canada, this particular specimen is now part of the esteemed collections held at the Natural History Museum in London, UK. The image captures these unique armour-plated structures against a pristine white background, allowing us to appreciate their intricate details and significance in paleontological research. As we delve into its history, we are transported back to a time when North America was home to these magnificent reptiles. With its duo of fossilized collar plates on display, this photograph offers us a glimpse into the world of prehistoric fauna. The Edmontonia's bone structure provides valuable insights into its biology and evolution as an ornithischian nodosaurid. Its armoured defense system made it one of nature's most formidable creatures during its time. As we marvel at this studio shot from Science Photo Library's collection at the Natural History Museum in London, let us reflect on how fossils like these connect us with our planet's ancient past. They serve as tangible evidence of life forms long gone but not forgotten – reminders that our understanding of Earth's history is ever-evolving thanks to dedicated scientists and institutions preserving such invaluable treasures for generations to come.
