Iguanodon the first dinosaur to be classified. Proably descended for the same family as the Late Jurassic Camptosaurus. It was bidpedal with a horse like head..

Marx Iguanodon Photo and art work by Fred Hinjosa.  One the best reconstructions from Marx and still reasonably valid. Until recently not a popular choice Disney reviewed it.

Iguanodon was named from its teeth that resembled larger versions of those of modern iguana lizards. It was a herbivore with an elongated horse-like head, rows of grinding teeth, and may have had a long tongue. Its forelimbs were about half to three quarters the length of its hind limbs, and the fingers end in hooves rather than claws, with a large spike on the thumb. It lived in herds near lakes in warm swampy country, and was the biggest, most plentiful and most widespread iguanodontid. It could move quickly if necessary.
