Ehm... i can see fingers and toes in their skeletons :P
We can also see toes on sauropod feet.

Hadrosaur front feet (ergo, hands) were adapted to walking comfortably and for all we know, most of them lacked any hooves or claws while also being fused and forming a 'hoof' or a 'pad' from flesh.

I can see fingers and toes on a whale skeleton, the point is, they were fused together on a fleeshy pad, rather than the most conventional hand/claw that shows up on all reconstructions

we have both mummies and footprints to back us up on that, its not like its something new and unpublished.

I see, although does that applies to the feet or just the "hands"?

Now it makes more sense to me xD

I misunderstood what you said. I imagined the feet being one big blob of meat and that sound really strange to me for hadrosaurs, specially because i was sure about seeing foot prints that showed the toes of the feet.

Mark is high among my chief pantheon of paleoart deities, alongside John conway and Andrey Atuchin.

Speaking of the latter:

Nice to see a mosasaur that isn't just a reptilian eel.
