Brachiosaurus
Late
Jurassic
North America and Africa
75 feet long (May have been up to 130
feet)
Was a member of the
'Long-necked' dinosaurs. Many of the bones
had openings in them to make the skeleton
lighter in weight. These animals were plant
eaters. Large adults weighted 90 tons (180,000
pounds), about 12 times the weight of a large
male elephant.
