Iguanodons (pronounced: /ɪˈgwɑːnɑːdɑːn/ i-GWAN-a-dan[4]) were a species of dinosaur.[1]
Description[]
Iguanodons were large quadrupeds that looked somewhat like a small sauropod. When eating they rose up on their hind legs.[1]
Combat[]
When confronted by a predator, iguanodons used their powerful legs to flee. If pressed, they defended themselves with a thumb-like spike on their hands and their strong tail.[1]
Biology[]
Iguanodons were herbivores and lived together in herds.[1]

Notes[]
- ↑ The 2nd edition alignment given in the original source is "Nil", which should be read as Neutral according to this Sage Advice answer by Skip Williams in Dragon Magazine Issue #155: "The nil alignment rating is a holdover from an early draft of the Monstrous Compendium material. Originally, a rating of nil indicated that a creature was not intelligent enough to have an alignment at all. However, the nil rating was dropped during rewriting and should have been replaced with the neutral alignment."
