A number of dinosaurs, such as Amphicoelias are known from only one fossil specimen. Many other dinosaurs were never preserved as fossils and so will never be known to mankind.

Have there been any fossils found in Quebec near the St Laurence river?
I've found some before at Parc-du-Haut-Fond. You turn a rock over and chances are that it has a fossil on it! (65%-70%) It's better to look when the tide is low because they are found mostly in the parts that get covered by the water when it's high tide. I have at least 10 with REALLY NICE fossils on them. I even found a rock with gems in it, but I lost it... :( Anyway, I hope you can find some! Good luck! :)

For thousands of years, dinosaur bones were attributed to dragons and other myths, and people never tried to truly understand them. In the 1800's, the teeth of Iguanodon were among the first dinosaur fossils to be found and then studied by scientists. Later, a large group of Iguanodon fossils was discovered in Bernissart, Belgium. At least 38 different Iguanodon skeletons were found. These skeletons were among the first nearly complete dinosaur skeletons to ever be found, and they helped to greatly improve the understanding of dinosaurs from giant lizards to very unique reptiles.
