Summary
[edit]DescriptionDiplodocus sp. juvenile leg (center) (Morrison Formation, Upper Jurassic; Mother's Day Site, Carbon County, southern Montana, USA) (15211955610).jpg |
Diplodocus sp. sauropod dinosaur from the Jurassic of Montana, USA (public display, MOR 790B, Museum of the Rockies, Bozeman, Montana, USA). Sauropod dinosaurs were the largest terrestrial animals ever. They all have the same basic body plan: large body with four walking legs, very long neck & tail, and a small head relative to body size. Sauropods were herbivores, and are often perceived as holding their heads & necks up high to reach vegetation normally out of reach to other organisms. Modern reconstructions of many sauropod species depict them with heads and necks held close to the horizontal, or at low angles above the horizontal. The leg at center is from an juvenile Diplodocus sauropod dinosaur. Compare its size with the adult leg (right) & baby leg (lower left). The entire juvenile animal weighed an estimated 2 tons (~1800 kg; ~4000 pounds). Classification: Animalia, Chordata, Vertebrata, Dinosauria, Sauropodomorpha, Diplodocidae Stratigraphy: Morrison Formation, Upper Jurassic Locality: Mother's Day Site, Carbon County, southern Montana, USA |
