Thescelosaur was a genus of small ornithopod dinosaur that appeared at the very end of the Late Cretaceous period in North America. This bipedal ornithopod is known from several partial skeletons and skulls that indicate it grew to between 2.5 and 4.0 meters (8.2 to 13.1 ft) in length on average. It had sturdy hind limbs, small wide hands, and a head with an elongate pointed snout. This genus of dinosaur is regarded as a specialized hypsilophodont and a herbivore.
