Amphicoelias
Amphicoelias was a giant, long-necked plant-eater that lived about 150 million years ago. It had very long and thin hind legs, and its front legs were longer than those of its close relative Diplodocus. This dinosaur was about as long as three school buses parked end to end!1

Iinyani ezimnandi
Amphicoelias was named by the famous paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope in 1877.1
Its name means 'biconcave' because the bones of its spine were hollow on both sides.1
Amphicoelias lived in a savanna-like environment with ferns and some tall trees along rivers.1
The first fossils of Amphicoelias were found by a man named Aaron Ripley in Colorado in 1877.1
Amphicoelias was lighter and more slender than many other sauropods of its time.1

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Amphicoelias
?How big was Amphicoelias?
Amphicoelias was about 18 metres (59 feet) long and weighed about 15 metric tons (17 short tons). That is longer than its close relative Diplodocus.1
?What did Amphicoelias eat?
Amphicoelias was a plant-eater that ate ferns and other plants. It lived in a savanna-like environment with some tall trees along rivers.1
?When did Amphicoelias live?
Amphicoelias lived about 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic Period.1
?Was Amphicoelias a dinosaur?
Yes, Amphicoelias was a dinosaur. It was a sauropod, a type of long-necked, plant-eating dinosaur.1
?Where was Amphicoelias found?
Amphicoelias fossils were found in Colorado, United States, in rocks called the Morrison Formation.1
?Is Amphicoelias the biggest dinosaur?
No, Amphicoelias was not the biggest dinosaur. It was about 18 metres long, which is shorter than its relative Diplodocus. One giant species once called Amphicoelias fragillimus was later renamed Maraapunisaurus.1
