Scientists have estimated that Apatosaurus weighed five times as much as an average bull elephant. Imagine how the ground must have shaken when this giant walked by! The long neck of Apatosaurus may have allowed this dinosaur to browse both in tall trees and on low-growing vegetation. To fuel its gigantic body, it needed to eat great quantities of plants every day. Apatosaurus is sometimes incorrectly called Brontosaurus. Over 130 years ago, both of these names were given to what was later shown to be the same kind of dinosaur. Because the name Apatosaurus was coined first, it is the one we use today. For over 25 years, Safari Ltd. has been proud to provide this premier line of scale model, dinosaur collectibles. These award winning dinosaur replicas are authenticated by the paleontologists of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, who houses the largest collection of dinosaur fossils in the world. Each Carnegie dinosaur can have up to 25 steps of hand painting to ensure the highest quality in the world marketplace.
