在2009年,古生物學家Vincent Williams、保羅·巴雷特(Paul Barrett)、Mark Purnell研究鴨嘴龍類的咀嚼方式與食性,他們以埃德蒙頓龍作為研究對象,分析數百顆牙齒的磨損痕跡。他們發現鴨嘴龍類可能以低矮植被為食,而非較高的植被[11]。他們建立出鴨嘴龍類的咀嚼模式,並推測這群動物主要以樹葉為食,而不是較堅硬的樹枝、莖[12]。在2008年,科羅拉多大學博爾德分校的學生Justin S. Tweet研究一個短冠龍的標本時,在胃部區域發現一團細微樹葉碎片[13][14]。Justin S. Tweet研究過這團細微樹葉碎片後,認為這個動物是以較高植被為食,而非低矮的植被[14]。對此,Mark Purnell表示胃部的食團不能準確地代表該動物的日常主食。
