OtterKnow Kids EncyclopediaBrontosaurus was a giant dinosaur with a super long neck and a super long tail. It was one of the biggest animals that ever walked on land! Even though it was huge, it was a gentle giant.
Brontosaurus had a very long neck, a small head, and a super long tail. It walked on four thick legs that were like tree trunks. Brontosaurus was so heavy that the ground probably shook when it walked.
Brontosaurus was a plant eater. It used its long neck to reach leaves high up in tall trees, kind of like a giraffe. It had to eat a huge amount of plants every day to feed its enormous body.
- Brontosaurus lived in groups to stay safe from meat eaters.
- Its name means “thunder lizard” because of how big and heavy it was.
- A Brontosaurus could be as long as two school buses parked end to end!
