I always liked the idea of multiple hadrosaur species coexisting to form a herd, it's always interested me...

I think Parasaurolophus has appeared so much because they make fantastic "interesting background" dinosaurs that won't eat the cast!

The one with the pompadour, the Elvis

When I was really young (before I found Jurassic Park), I had a picture book of dinosaurs, and I asked my grandmother to paint some of the pages onto my bedroom walls. There were tyrannosaurs, maiasaurs, raptors, and yes, even a herd of parasaurs. They have always been my favorite, and they will never not be my favorite.

I love the Parasaurs in this franchise, and leading up to JW:FK, was worried they might have gone extinct, since they weren't in the trailers. Spoilers! Fortunately, they appeared on the island, and escaping the estate. I think my favorite rendition is obviously Lost World's, which I have a (necessary) large herd in Evolution.

I really like parasaurolophs.Ther so interesting and the fact that we know what sounds they would make and that there was soft tissue around it's crest makes the one of the most studied dinosaurs out there.

I mean you have to love this Dinosaur! Just looks at it's face! It's adorable.

Honestly, I wish Parasaurs would’ve gotten a bigger role in the movies cuz they’re my favorite herbivorous dinosaur. I just feel like they’re majestic looking as hell and I love it

The Parasaurolophus is my second favorite planteating dinosaur directly after the Amargasaurus, there is just something about the "horn" on its head that makes this animal such a beautiful creature. I love the fact that it was included in every single JP movie as well as in the 2 JW movies, I hope we'll see it again in JW3

I wish the Parasaurolophus will get more screen time, and the Parasaurolophus is very underated.

The round up scene was amazing. I like how even though the Parasaurolophus was tranqued it still defended from the hunters before they finally subdued it

I always loved how Roland Tembo refereed to the Parasaurolophus as "Elvis" while he nicknamed the Pachycephalosaurus "Friar Tuck" for obvious reasons. Lol!

YAS! One of my favourite herbivores!! *The..the one with the big red horn! THE POMPADOUR! .....ELVIS!*

I really like Parasaurolophus from Paris in Dinosaur King but it will never invade the place in my heart held by Pachycephalosaurus(if your curious it's because of it's episode in the same show).

Love seeing the success my dude. Keep up the good work!

I always thought Parasaurs were cool, especially because of the Hunt scene. And its toys were decent.

I think they can give the Parasaurs a bit more screentime. Thanks for the great content Klayton! This is definitely my favourite channel on KZfaq!!

History of the Ankylosaurus Jurassic Park

Top para fan right here. It's my all time favorite herbivore. I'm even writing a book about a family of them, in the spirit of Raptor Red. #1 right here.

I like the Parasaurolphus, it's one of my favourite herbivorous dinosaurs, and it's also my Dads favourite dinosaur

Loved that dino since the movie came out thanks man for letting me know what the name of that dino is thanks klayton

Loved them since I was a kid! One of the things I find disappointing about the films and games is that they never gave them, or any of there like relatives very noticeable calls. In reality they would all sound VERY loud, and unique given that there head crests where hallow and connected to their nasal cavities, possibly for extreme long range communication. That's also a problem I have for the games, and movies beyond the first one. In the first movie each dino sounded unique. In the subsequent media, every new dino sounds very generic and dull!

The Parasaurolophus was also in Kenner's die-cast metal mini lines for the first Jurassic Park, although it was labelled as a "Hadrosaurus." I guess to save room on the cardboard packaging?

Parasaurolophus is my all-time favourite dinosaur species since years before the first Jurassic Park film. I love it because of it's strange head crest and it's gentle looking appearance.

Do a history of the Brachiosaurs. In honor of that poor Brachiosaurs from Fallen Kingdom. It's cries still haunt my nightmares :'(

I'll admit that if they were cloned back to life and were in an auction similar to that seen in _Fallen Kingdom_ (and assuming that I was rich also), I'd buy one just to keep as a pet. Better them and any other duck-billed dinosaur than a carnivore.

Your spoiler review on jurassic world fallen kingdom, is 6th on trending !! Well done kalyton, great video as always too!!

Parasaurolophus is honestly my favorite dinosaur. It just has this certain beauty to it.

The cry of the Parasaur has always intimidated me more than the Rex roar. You may find that weird at first, but the Rex's roar is that of a prideful and grand boom, while the Parasaur's cry sounds like its screaming in confused pain and fear, especially since it cries when it runs away from something. That captured fear in the sound really raises my hairs, and it doesn't graceful at all.

The sounds it makes in the lost world are etched in my mind

I like it's appearance in Jurassic Park the most, despite it's minimal time. I like how understated and just... there in the distance it is. It made it more believable. I still love it in the other movies, and I love it's fight in Jurassic World.

I used to hunt Parries in the Carnivores games on my old computer. Loved every minute of it. They were a low level creature that couldn’t kill you, but could get to a nice size.

This has been my fave Dino since childhood. The exotic crest fit exactly what I always pictured a Dinosaur should be.

Parasaurolophus has always been my personal favorite. Great video!

I can't believe I only just found your channel last night thanks to a friend suggesting it. Lots of great Jurassic Park content, and I love these videos about the history of each dino in the franchise!

You actually missed a Parasaurolphus scene in Fallen Kingdom, after the Volcano Gyrosphere escape scene, in the water when the Sinoceratops swimming, not to far away you can see a Parasaur trying to get on top of a rock in the water.

Thanks for making this piece! Parasaurolophus is my favorite dinosaur since I was a little girl, and even more after the theoretical defense mechanism they had in packs according to the theories!

Always been one of my favourite herbivores. As I play a lot of Ark, having a Para is always one of the things I start out doing. Oh and I love how Roland calls him Elvis.

I wouldn't mind if we got a dinosaur movie with a Parasaurolophus as the lead.

One of my favorites for sure. Loved the TLW toy (and the baby one that came with Tim!) back in the day. Was excited when I saw it in Fallen Kingdom since I knew it was one of the few to be in every film. Thanks for the video, Klayton.

This one is my all-time favorite dinosaur. I was so happy to learn it was in Fallen Kingdom ^-^

It's been my favorite dinosaur since I was a little kid so obviously I love its semi-prevalence in the franchise.

I've always been a fan of the Parasaur, and when I unlocked it in JWE I was extremely happy!

I've always loved the Parasaurolophus ever since I was a kid watching Jurassic Park and especially the lost world.. I'ts probably my favorite herbivore dinosaur. I had the electronic toy as a kid that was from the lost world and I would bring it with me everywhere throughout my early years of elementary school. I still love the dinosaur today :)

I always loved the Parasaurs in the Jurassic films. As a kid, it was easily my favorite herbivore at the time, and I remember scouring all the Walmarts/toy shops in my area to get a Jurassic Park Parasaurolophus

No! No! Go for the Legs! The Legs!

I have the running figure from Lost World and its one of my favorite toys. My mom, who isn't really a big dino fan has chosen the parasaur as her favorite species. They are pretty awesome animals, especially when you take into consideration all that goes on inside that crest.

To me they are a symbol of hope in a way. While I was blown away by the first film, I was disappointed that there were not more dinosaurs, as in the book. On the VHS I noticed the Parasaurolophus heard, so I appreciated that Spielberg put a little more detail to the world. Still I wish there was more, like in the 1930s' King Kong, you see creatures in the background and the forest seems full of life.

Parasaurolophus is my favorite duckbilled dinosaur. I didn’t realize how much I liked it until I was playing Jurassic World Evolution. I was so happy when I finally hatched them. Compared to the others I had hatched before like the Corythosaurus and Edmontosaurus, I find the crest and overall look way more interesting.

My top 3 herbivores (from the franchise) were always Triceratops, Ankylosaurus and Stegosaurus (with an honarable mention to Brachiosaurs) probably because of their armour and wepons in some way which were fearsome and cool looking in each one in a different way. Parasaurolophus were always intringing to me because of the especulation and theorys around their use of the "banana horn" (communication, mating, colors etc) it still is a beautiful dinosaur which I'm happy to see they appeared in all 5 movies and hopefully for the next one aswell Props Klayton and keep up the awesome work you provide

Para has been my favourite herbivore since I was a kid, nice to see some lore on em!

Been my fav since I was a kid. So happy to see it in the franchise. :)

My favorite dinosaur since BEFORE Jurassic Park, and you posted this video on my birthday, thanks Klayton! Nice work as always. I missed them earlier in Fallen Kingdom only to notice a couple in the mansion and was just like "Where the hell did they come from? Not that I'm complaining."

I love parasaurolophus thank you for this video it is so underrated within the JP community i wish it has a bigger role in the last one.

I'm absolutely loving The Lost World: Jurassic Park PS1 Soundtracks you have been using in your videos recently. Michael Giacchino is a genius.

Parasaurolophuses were and are my must have in both JP:OG and JPE Gotta love those plant-eating duck-like dinosaurs

I must say that this dino is by far the best hadrosaur. I haven't watched Fallen Kingdom, but I hope that in any future franchise its sound is featured more than it has been.

definitely in my top 3 dinosaur list! Love them so much and we share the same favorite movie moment!

At least they survived in Fallen Kingdom cause I thought they would be extinct since we saw none of them in the trailers so that's good cause I really do like this dinosaur probably cause of the lost world and how it was taken down. Also Klayton can you do a video taking about the dimorphodon if you could cause we didn't see any of them in Fallen Kingdom.

Hey dude, love your videos. I think I’ve watched more than 50 in the last week! Can’t get enough of the in-depth Dino-knowledge! Also loving Jurassic World Evolutions and the new movie. Keep it up mate, great work!

Okay this is one of the videos I have been waiting for I love the Parasaurolophus. Everywhere I can see it I love it, I'm sure everyone knows that crest is used as a resonating chamber. Connected from a nasal passage to help the species in communication, this discovery has lead to paleontologist to believe that it also had very sensitive hearing. It is also theorized that that the species whose crest vary in length would have different sounds. Can you imagine hearing a chorus of them in a prehistoric jungle? These are all facts just off the top of my head so don't quote me but I am pretty confident I hit the nail on the head. Sorry I haven't been watching your other videos, spoilers but I have my tickets and the date is set. If you can do me the favor in considering making a series of reading the Jurassic park novels. I would love to hear you and follow along with my own copy. How many likes do we need to make that happen? thanks for the video and keep up the good work.

Get the thing, para....para. (throws packet) the thing with the horn!

Parasaurolophus is my favorite duckbilled dinosaur, and I think it's partially because of the JP franchise. I do wish it got more screen time in the movies, but, like Brachiosaurus, Velociraptor, and many other dinosaurs in the franchise, it's left a very good impact on me.

Another one of my favorite dinos~ Actually I didn't even realize this dino was apart of JP and JW, I actually became a fan of it when I was learning about different dinosaurs when I started collecting those $1 toys you see at the dollar store.

There was also two toy releases of this dino for the first Jurassic Park; one as a "hatchling" companion to the Tim Murphy figure for the 2nd series release, and a die-cast metallic one that was yellow and black.

I do like the Parasaurolophus, its one of my favorite JP animals especially in The Lost World, hopefully we'll see it yet again in the next jurassic world movie.

Allosaurus will always be my favorite but Parasaurolophus is absolutely my favorite herbivore. We need more hadrosaur representation!

I really loved the scene in the Lost World where the Parasaurolophus lifted one of the hunters off the ground when they tried to capture him.

I remember watching the original JP movie in the theater, and being so excited I almost cried when I saw the parasaurs drinking from the pond near the brachios. They've been my fave since I was a little kid.

Thanks to "The Lost World: Jurassic Park," it became one of my personal favorite dinosaurs! 😊

Will you ever do a video about the amphitheater in San Diego

I love this dinosaur, I was very glad that it was included in Fallen Kingdom.

I remember as a kid really wanting to feed a Parasaurolophus in a petting zoo like place. like what you do with cows. I remember being really sad this would never happen.

Through exposure, Klayton. I think we've seen it so damn much throughout the years that we've all been made to take a liking to it. :P

Love the Parasaurolophus, it is such an underrated dinosaur. In fact, one of my cartoon characters is a Parasaurolophus.

one fan theory i'm fond of regarding the Parasaurolophus is that they actually have color-changing abilities, but not like what Indominus or the novel carnotaurs had: instead, they have a "weaker" camouflage ability where they look different depending on their environment but otherwise have no control over it, which would explain why they have a different coloration in every film.

Now thinking of it it's one of my favorite herbivores alongside the sauropods and gallimimus I was actually happy to see them in the scene of the Lockwood mansion as I didn't see them on the island and thought they went extinct again.

This is probably one of my favorite dinosaurs of all time

Love it. I think that Dweeb was one in "We're Back! A Dinosaurs' Story" :)

I really like these history videos. Keep up the good work👍

it was one of my favorites of the " duck bills" as a kid. the head creast is such a stricking feature

What type of content will u make now that fallen kingdom has been released?

This is one of my favorite series

I liked the parasuar up until JW Evolution. Damn things kept on breaking out so I said f it and threw a trex in there

My favorite dinosaur!! Thank you so much for making this!! I love it so much I have a tattoo of it on my arm, my first tatt :D

This is my 2nd favorite dinosaur only after Diplodocus. One thing to note that even though it was popularized by JP it was always that one "filler" dinosaur in those bags/boxes of plastic dino figurines. You'd get like 1 Trex, 1 Brontosaurus, 2 Ankylosaurs, 1 Trike, 2 Stegosaurs, a few Pterodactyls, and Parasaurs for filler (like 5 or 6 of them).

I’ve been waiting for this episode for a long time

Hahahaha oh god the trespasser parasaurolophus looks hilarious.

My favourite dinosaur species ever. Love Parasaurolophus.

LIKE!!! Didn’t even watch the video yet. This was just always my favorite dinosaur ever since I first seen them in that one amazing scene in Disney’s Fantasia.

When I told someone what you said that many of the same criticisms towards Fallen Kingdom could also be applied to the original Jurassic Park, he responded with: "Because remember folks, when one movie does something bad, they ALL DO IT BAD! Never mind context or character or writing or tension."

I love the Parasaurolophus

It's the Gaming Beaver's favorite Dino!!! haha. I like this dinosaur a lot as well. Always wished they would have displayed some of it's (possibly) beautiful calls it would have been capable of making with that elegant crest!

Jurassic world fallen Kingdom is amazing 9.5/10 With good jokes, great action, jump scares, the opening was the best part, the INDORAPTER was awesome,funny,and scary at the same time.

I love Parasaurolophus in fact as a kid it was one of the first dinosaurs I ever loved even after watching all of the Jurassic Park movies😃

This was my favorite dinosaur as a kid!

The Para is one of my favorite dinosaurs nice to see make a video on it, also ur opening breaks my ears with headphones

Klayton, love your videos man. Just finished watching through all your JP Comics series. Would you ever consider doing series similar to those, except about the video games? Or maybe just one video per game discussing what can be taken as canon and what contradictions they may have? Thanks for being the best Jurassic channel on KZfaq 👍

Definetly my favourite dinosaur. I even have the horn head toy too. :)
