1

Brontosaurus was named by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1879, based on a partial skeleton found in Como Bluff, Wyoming.1

2

For many years, scientists thought Brontosaurus was the same as Apatosaurus, but a 2015 study showed it is a separate genus.1

3

The largest species, Brontosaurus excelsus, could reach up to 23 meters (75 feet) long and weigh as much as 20 tonnes (22 short tons).1

4

Brontosaurus had a very long neck and a whip-like tail, and its front legs were slightly shorter than its back legs.1

5

Young Brontosaurus grew very fast, reaching adult size in as little as 15 years.1

6

Brontosaurus lived about 156 to 146 million years ago during the Kimmeridgian and Tithonian ages.1

?Is Brontosaurus a real dinosaur?

Yes, Brontosaurus is a real dinosaur. Scientists once thought it was the same as Apatosaurus, but a 2015 study showed it is a separate genus.12

?How big was Brontosaurus?

The largest species, Brontosaurus excelsus, reached up to 21 to 23 metres (69 to 75 ft) long and weighed 15 to 20 tonnes (17 to 22 short tons). The smaller species Brontosaurus parvus was about 19 metres (62 ft) long.1

?What did Brontosaurus eat?

Brontosaurus was a herbivore that ate plants like ferns, cycadeoids, seed ferns, and horsetails. It likely fed at ground height as a nonselective browser.1

?When did Brontosaurus live?

Brontosaurus lived during the Late Jurassic period, about 156 to 146 million years ago.1

?Where was Brontosaurus found?

Brontosaurus fossils have been found in the Morrison Formation of what is now Utah and Wyoming in the United States.1

?Why is it called Brontosaurus?

The name Brontosaurus means 'thunder lizard' in Greek, from the words brontฤ“ (thunder) and sauros (lizard).1

?How fast did Brontosaurus grow?

Young Brontosaurus grew very fast, reaching adult size in as little as 15 years. One study found they could grow up to 5,000 kg (11,000 lb) in a single year.1

?Did Brontosaurus have feathers?

No, Brontosaurus did not have feathers. It was a sauropod dinosaur with scaly skin, like other large long-necked dinosaurs.1

?What is the difference between Brontosaurus and Apatosaurus?

Brontosaurus is generally less massive and has a thinner, higher-set neck than Apatosaurus. A 2015 study found enough differences to make them separate genera.12

?Could Brontosaurus swim?

Scientists are not sure if Brontosaurus could swim. It lived on land and its body was built for walking on four legs, but some dinosaurs may have been able to swim.1

Mosenyi wa ditshomo
