Deinosuchus:is closely related to the modern alligator and caiman. It is an extinct genus of alligatoroid crocodilian that lived during the late Cretaceous period, about 82 to 73 million years ago.

Eskimo Curlew:also known as the “northern curlew,” was one of many shorebirds that arrived in New Jersey during the fall migration from western Arctic Canada. It was about 12 inches in total length.

Hadrosaurus:is the official state fossil of New Jersey. It’s a large bipedal dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period, about 80 million to 78 million years ago. 

Icarosaurus:was a small, gliding reptile from the Late Triassic. It vaguely resembled a moth and was closely related to lizards and the tuatara. It measured about 4 inches long from the skull.

Diplurus:is a genus of coelacanth fish that went extinct millions of years ago. It was a large, plump, lobe-finned fish that grew to 6.5 feet long and weighed approximately 200 pounds.

Labrador Duck: was a North American bird that wintered along the coast of New Jersey. It was about 20 inches in total length. The females were grey-brown, while the males had dark bodies with white.
