The jaws were apparently operated by relatively weak muscles.
豪勇龍的小型顳顬孔位在眼睛後方,而頭與下頜間肌肉較大,附著到下頜骨頭的冠狀突(coronid process)上。頭顱後段狹窄,無法提供足夠面積使下頜肌肉附著,而冠狀突提供下頜肌肉更大的附著面積,可形成更強壯的咬合力。另一較小的下頜降肌(Musculus depressor mandibulae,用來使下頜張開),位在頭顱骨後方,連接至寬而明顯的副枕突(Paroccipital process)。豪勇龍是植食性恐龍,可能使用其複雜齒系咀嚼植物。牠們可能以樹葉、水果、種子等高營養價值植物為食[5]。另一種看法是,根據其寬廣喙狀嘴,牠們會以大量的低營養價值植物為食。豪勇龍生存於河流三角洲地區。
