The Jurassic Coast Growing a science communication platform from a humble blog into a globally viewed website with more than 90,000 visitors is no small feat. It requires relentless writing, editing, formatting, and revising, along with the invisible work that shapes the reader experience: buttons, layouts, internal links, image placement, and overall design. Iguanodon bernisssartensis was a large iguanodontian dinosaur that lived throughout the Early Cretaceous 145-125 million years ago. Iguanodon was a quadruped, able to move on all fours and move bipedally. The dinosaur was capable of reaching sizes in excess of thirty feet and weighed up to five tonnes.
