For positive integer $k,$ we say that it is a [i]Taurus integer[/i] if we can delete one element from the set $M_k=\{1,2,\cdots,k\},$ such that the sum of remaining $k-1$ elements is a positive perfect square. For example, $7$ is a Taurus integer, because if we delete $3$ from $M_7=\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7\},$ the sum of remaining $6$ elements is $25,$ which is a positive perfect square. $(1)$ Determine whether $2021$ is a Taurus integer. $(2)$ For positive integer $n,$ determine the number of Taurus integers in $\{1,2,\cdots,n\}.$
