Brontosaurus is an invalid name for Apatosaurus excelsius. Apatosaurus had forward pointing teeth shaped like leaves in the front of their mouth. Their purpose wasn't for chewing but simply for cropping plants that the Apatosaurus would then swallow.

∙ 6y agoThe Brontosaurus is now called an Apatosaurus.Many dinosaurs had fur or feathers, there is no evidence that the Apatosaurus was one of these.In modern day animals animals like hippos, rhinos and elephants are essentially furless. Their mass provides sufficient body heat and a they low surface area to keep their temperature constant.
Scientists feel that many meat-eating theropods, such as velociraptors and relatives of tyrannosaurs, were clearly clad in feathers, but most dinosaurs were scaly beasts .

How can you tell a differencen between a dinosaur that was a plant eater and one that was a meat eater?
One way is by looking at the teeth. Carnivorous dinosaurs always had sharp teeth. Herbivorous dinosaurs had spatula like teeth, or even molars, depending on the species.
