Tenontosaurus Dinosaur
The
first Tenontosaurus fossil was found in Big Horn County, Montana by an American
Museum of Natural History expedition in 1903. Subsequent digs in the same area
during the 1930s unearthed 18 more specimens, and four specimens were found
during the 1940s. Despite the large number of fossil specimens, the animal was
not named or scientifically described during this time, though Barnum Brown of
the AMNH gave it the informal name "Tenantosaurus", "sinew lizard", in reference
to the extensive system of stiffening tendons in its back and tail.
