Omeisaurus had a tail club made of fused bones at the end of its tail, which it may have used for defense.2

The largest species, Omeisaurus tianfuensis, weighed as much as two adult elephants.2

Omeisaurus lived in dense forests and sometimes shared its home with other sauropods like Shunosaurus and Datousaurus.2

The first Omeisaurus fossils were found in 1936 by Charles Lewis Camp and Yang Zhongjian near Mount Emei.2

Omeisaurus belongs to the family Mamenchisauridae, a group of long-necked sauropods from Asia.5 2

Many Omeisaurus skeletons were found during the construction of the Wujiaba Dam in the 1970s, including partial skulls and skeletons.2
