How tall was a brachiosaur?
The average is 50 feet tall and 110 feet wide.
What was the tallest plant-eating dinosaur?
There's a tentative creature called Ultrasaurus, which, if it doesn't turn out to be (when more bones are found) just a really big brachiosaur, would be the tallest dinosaur yet described.
What was the biggest dinosaur?
There are many folkloristic legends about it, however,the dinosaur Amphicoelias fragillimus is said to be the biggest dinosaur ever lived on Earth.We may never know, but the strongest contender at present is the "Ultrasaurus" a kind of brachiosaur, but known only from a HUGE thighbone.
How does allosaurus hunt brachiosaur?
Allosaurus definitely would have hunted young Brachiosaurus. It would ambush, then pursue and grasp the prey with its arms, and dispatch it with a bite to the throat. It is unknown whether Allosaurus hunted adult sauropods, but if they did, Allosaurus would have to mob the sauropod as a group and slash it repeatedly until the prey finally bled to death.
Were Jurassic dinosaurs bigger than triassic dinosaurs?
Yes. This is mainly due to the sudden increase of vegetation during the Jurassic as well as the fact that the vegetation was getting much abundant, with more vegetation comes more oxygen. this sudden increase of vegetation allows herbivores of that time to grow in size (Eg. Protosauropods from the Triassic to Sauropods like Diplodicus and Brachiosaur in the Jurassic). With larger Herbivores comes in larger carnivores, the once abundant Ceratosaurus has been reduced due to competition with larger and more advance carnivore like Allosaurus. So yes Jurassic dinosaurs were indeed bigger and ADVANCE due to larger vegetation and increase in oxygen.
Which dinosaur has the longest forelegs?
The heaviest land animal of all time, the Brachiosaurus. The humerous-to-femur ratio was greater than 1.0 meaning the shoulders were higher than the hips. Other dinosaurs that were originally thought to be bigger or similar, such as Ultrasaurus or Supersaurus either turned out to be Brachiosaur or more related to the Diplodocus.
What was the tallest dinosaur?
It's difficult to say at this point. A lot of the largest and possibly tallest dinosaurs aren't very complete.Brachiosaurus is still the most complete large dinosaur which we can say with reasonable certainly was tall. It might have been able to reach about 14m in height if it's posed with an elevated neck.There is another brachiosaur called Sauroposeidon which is only known from 4 neck bones. These are very long (the largest bone is 1.4m long). It suggests a dinosaur with a 11 to 12m neck. There are a lot of uncertainties as to what the rest of it looked like so it's default to know exactly how tall it was. Assuming its body was built like that of Brachiosaurus, and it held its neck in an elevated pose, it might have been able to reach about 17m in height.Sauropoisedonsuropods.
What is the Largest plant eating dinosaur?
argentinasaurus was the biggest of all dinosaurs and a plant eater they are know as herbivoresEdit: It depends on what you mean by ''largest''. Usually that means the most massive or heaviest. The biggest group of herbivorous dinosaurs where the sauropods (the ''long necks'').Every dinosaur weight or mass you have ever heard is an estimate. Estimates are difficult when you only have the bones because of the uncertainties of unknown soft tissue. Also the largest known dinosaurs arrn't very complete which makes estimating even harder. In short there is no straight answer.Take Brachiosaurus brancai (some call it Giraffatitan brancai ). It has been estimated as low as 15 tons and as high as 80 tons using different estimates.Those two estimates are extreme and are generally thought to be wrong. Most estimates these days put it in the 25-30 ton range.Argentinosaurus is undoubtingly a massive animal but it isn't fully known. There are a lot of uncertainties as to its exact proportions. Estimates have ranged from 60 -100 tons.There are other, even less complete giant dinosaurs which 'might' be bigger.Here are some other potential candidates to look into:Amphicoelias, Futalognkosaurus, Puertasaurus, Paralititan, Antarctosaurus, Sauroposeidon, TuriasaurusThere are also some giant hadrosaurs (duck bill dinosaurs) that grew very large. But none are as large as sauropods.
