List of U.S. state dinosaurs

List of U.S. state dinosaurs

This is a list of U.S. state dinosaurs in the United States, including the District of Columbia. A large number of states also have dinosaurs as state fossils, but this list only includes those that have been officially designated as "state dinosaurs". "Maiasaura" (Montana), "Coelophysis" (New Mexico), "Saurophaganax" (Oklahoma), "Triceratops" (South Dakota), and "Allosaurus" (Utah) are state fossils. [ [http://www.geocities.com/stegob/statefossils.html State Fossils] , "Stately Fossils: A Comprehensive Look at the State Fossils and Other Official Fossils", Stephen Brusatte, Fossil News, September 2002, ISBN 0-9724416-2-X.] In 1998, the legislature of Arizona was unable to decide on a state dinosaur, or indeed a state fossil.
