Alamosaurus
Click here for more Alamosaurus Pictures
Alamosaurus was a massive plant-eater (herbivore) that lived in the late
Cretaceous period,
between about 70 and 65 million years ago, in North America - in the region that
is today the southwestern part of the United States.
Alamosaurus was usually around 69 feet (21 meters) long, and probably weighed around 33 tons.
The first
fossils
of Alamosaurus were found by Charles W. Gilmore in
1922.
He found a pelvic bone ("ischium") and a shoulder bone ("scapula"). Later in
1946,
Gilmore discovered further
fossils, including
a complete tail, a nearly complete right forelimb, and both pelvic bones ("ischia").
Various other Alamosaurus fossils
have also subsequently been found in the southwestern
US, but no skull material (other than a few teeth)
have yet been found.
