Fun Facts About Brachiosaurus

Brachiosaurus lived in the late Jurassic period, about 154 to 150 million years ago, in western North America. Its name means “arm lizard,” because its front legs were longer than its back legs – so it stood taller at the front, kind of like a giraffe. That helped it reach leaves other animals couldn’t. It was over 70 feet long and a total plant-eater. One of the tallest mounted dinosaur skeletons in the world, in a museum in Berlin, Germany, belongs to a close relative once also called Brachiosaurus.

Fun Ideas for Your Finished Brachiosaurus

Glue real pressed leaves into the treetop to make a nature collage. Try to picture 40 feet – that’s about as tall as a four-story building! Or play giraffe versus Brachiosaurus: who can reach the highest?
