The bronze dinosaur sculpture in Haddonfield is a notable tribute to William Parker's discovery of hadrosaur fossils in 1858, which catalyzed local paleontological research.
Parker's 1858 discovery not only marked a significant moment in Haddonfield's history but also contributed to the global understanding of dinosaurs and paleontology.
The hadrosaur skeleton was the most complete of its time and became the first mounted dinosaur skeleton, publicly displayed at the Academy of Natural Sciences.
This unique sculpture serves as a reminder of Haddonfield's rich paleontological heritage, bringing history and art together in a celebration of scientific discovery.
