Watch out, the Diplodocus is humongous!

Facts about the extinct Diplodocus:

It was one of the best studied dinosaur and it lived in the late Jurassic period.

The Diplodocus has been on part of the Animalia kingdom for millions of years, they are evolved reptiles. It is a simple dinosaur with a with a body, long neck, tail, and sturdy legs. The Diplodocus skull was very small compared to the size of it's body.

It had an extremely long tail composed of about 80 caudal vertebrae which is almost twice the size of the early sauropods. For defence, it used it's whip-like tail to knock out or blind it's enemies.

The Diplodocus had peg-like teeth that were only present in the anterior section of the jaw for ripping off leaves from trees because this dinosaur is a plant eater otherwise known as a herbivore.

Today people are still studying to find out more about if dinosaurs knew how to swim in the water. But recent studies indicated that the water pressure would of made it difficult for them to breath out with their nostrils. But they believe that they could injure or kill it's prey but not eat it because it was a plant eater.

Palaeontologist are still searching and digging for fossils to study and know the reason why they became extinct. It would off been amazing  if they were still alive today roaming in this Earth.
