Pecking Natural Science-art Organization (PNSO) is a global leading scientific art research institution.Co-founded by science artist ZHAO Chuang and science fairy tale writer YANG Yang in 2009.Since it’s founding in 2009, PNSO has been working with numerous top research institutions, including: American Museum of Natural History, University of Chicago, The University of Nottingham, International Union of Geological Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences and Peking University. PNSO’s science artwork had been widely published in globally renowned science journals and magazines such as Nature, Science, Cell and PNAS; its authorized copyrights of works had also been published in other popular medias such as The New York Times, Washington Post, The Guardian, National Geography, BBC and Reuters. PNSO also works closely with museums from around the world to provide relative exhibition support services. Shantungosaurus, meaning "Shandong Lizard", is a genus of saurolophine hadrosaurid dinosaurs found in the Late Cretaceous Wangshi Group of the ShandongPeninsula in China.[1] The stratigraphic interval of Shantungosaurus ranges from the top of the Xingezhuang Formation to the middle of the Hongtuya Formation, middle to late Campanian in age.[2] Shantungosaurus is so far the largest hadrosauroid taxon in the world: the greatest length of its femur is about 1.7 m, and the greatest length of its humerus is about 0.97 m.

I am happy with all the PNSO hadrosaurs....this one is very large (which it should be for this species)...coloration is a little blander than other in this line, but overall very attractive figure

My review of PNSO's Shantungosaurus
I FINALLY have a Shantungosaurus in my collection!!!!! It was more than just simply the largest and heaviest duckbilled dinosaur on record (at least 50 feet long and tipping the scales at anywhere from 7 to 10 tons); it was also one of the heaviest animals that ever walked on 2 legs (if not THE heaviest), and any dinosaur - bipedal or not - carrying that much weight around would have been the literal equivalent of a walking mountain of food for every hungry predator in the immediate vicinity, which is why all herbivorous dinosaurs in general (and duckbills, such as Shantungosaurus, in particular) lived and traveled in vast herds, many thousands strong; other than their great size and thick, leathery skin, their only defense against being torn apart and eaten alive was their superior numbers. My collection is growing by leaps and bounds - today, it's "closing fast on 300", but I'm counting the nanoseconds until the day it gets up to "closing fast on 1,000"!!!!!
