What is the most common type of hadrosaur found in Horse Shoe Canyon Alberta, and Drumheller Alberta?

Thats a hard call because it can be difficult to identify post cranial material of isolated bones to a specific species.  My guess is Edmontosaurus regalis followed by Hypacrosaurus altispinus.  I say that because of the number of E. regalis bonebeds that exist in the Drum area and number of publications I've seen.  I've attached a couple of papers.

 

  A paleontologist at the Royal Terrell Museum would be best to address that question,  since its their home turf.  Try contacting them.
