Brachiosaurus

  Brachiosaurus is my moms favorite dinosaur. It was a huge dinosaur, it stood 4 stories ( or 5). A feature some saurapods don't have ..... it's  front legs were bigger than it's hind legs ! I think it makes the dinosaur taller because it makes the chest,neck and head higher. If a predator dares to attack this big dinosaur it's in trouble! Brachiosaurus head may have been small, but it's front legs could have been a lethal weapon. It could kick the predator ..... then the predator may think twice ! Brachiosaurus had nostrils at the TOP of it's head. Brachiosaurus traveled in herds. How do we know this ? Because we found Brachiosaurus tracks. These dinosaurs had plant-eating teeth. They ate at the tops of trees were no other dinosaur could reach. They are cool!
