"Horsetails Equisetum grow in great thickets almost anywhere sufficiently close to water. Their tubers are commonly found as fossils and stem-fragments 2cm across are known from Bone Butte, indicating large specimens similar to the modern giant horsetail. Studies indicate these are some of the most efficient sources of energy available to herbivorous dinosaurs."
