Preliminary studies are revealing a surprising side to these reptiles, suggesting that Dakota”even though roughly 35 feet (12 meters) long and weighing some 35 tons”was no slowpoke.
Is 35 tons a typo? Seems a bit weighty for a 35ft hadrosaur.

Weight
The reason I brought up the weight issue is because I just happened to be reading up on Sue the T Rex at the time.
Sue's Vital Statistics
Length: 42 feet (12.8 meters)
Estimated live weight: 7 tons (6.4 metric tons)
