Get ready to rumble! America was once a stomping ground for truly colossal dinosaurs.
Sauropods: These long-necked, long-tailed giants dominated the plant-eating scene.
Alamosaurus: This massive sauropod (up to 100 feet long) roamed what's now Texas and New Mexico.
Supersaurus: Estimates suggest this beast was nearly 120 feet long, perhaps the longest dino in North America.
Seismosaurus: This "earthquake lizard" likely stretched over 100 feet and weighed 50 tons!
Size isn't everything: Huge size helped protect sauropods but made them less agile than smaller dinos.
Fossil Discoveries: Paleontologists actively uncover new giant dino species across America.
Imagine encountering these behemoths in real life! It's a humbling reminder of the Earth's prehistoric past.
