This is just a quickie to finish off the last of the Hayashibara stuff before I get back to China and vanish into the field. In addition to the superb Saurolophus featured the other day, the museum has cast most of the elements and there are various mounts of pieces hanging around the place. Here’s the lower part of a hindlimb and foot, which rather better shows off the material then a few bits lying on the ground. Again, the quality is superb and even without a scalebar, it’s quite clear just how big this is.

“it’s quite clear just how big this is” – But how big is big? About 2m?
Yeah, about 2 m, less of course a bit of space below the foot. So, 1.8 m ish.
Wait — you’re saying that the top of the tibia is 2 m off the ground?
