    The left humerus of a juvenile hadrosaur. Found near Hamilton. The closest formation is Two Medicine formation. The deltopectoral crest seems fairly robust for such a young animal so I'm leaning towards this being Lambeosaurine instead of Saurolophine, which would make it most likely Hypacrosaurus. The shape also fits quite well with a juvenile Hypacrosaurus

     

    I have restored some small areas where there were large holes. But I have left the largest area of damage due to it being a little unclear as to how robust or slender that area would have been.
