Brachiosaurus.

The brachiosaurus is a herbivore (plant eater) dinosaur. It feeds on plants and tops of tall tree. The brachiosaurus swallows it food whole, without chewing. The brachiosaurus digests its food in its guts.

A brachiosaurus is one of the most largest dinosaurs. It has 4 huge legs. A very long neck, but a tiny head, and a long tail. The brachiosaurus nose is on the very top of it head. It has chisel like teeth and its front legs are way bigger than its back. A brachiosaurus is supposedly 40-50 feet tall, it has a bulky body. The Brachiosaurus name means “arm reptile”.

The brachiosaurus lived way back in the late Jurassic period, It lived on this earth 156-145 million years ago, with other reptiles.

It lived in the in, North America and Tanzania in the USA. A few of the brachiosaurus fossils were found without the head.

The brachiosaurus defended itself by simply smashing its predators with it tail or feet because it had no other way to defend itself. The brachiosaurus weighed between 60,000 and 170,000 pounds, which means it was the largest dinosaur to ever live. Because of its huge size, it was very difficult for other prey or larger predators to attack, even though it was one of the most least intelligent dinosaurs.
