Alamosaurus — size comparison — facts and sources

Alamosaurus was a huge herbivorous sauropod of Late Cretaceous southwestern North America. It had a long neck and tail, with four substantial limbs supporting its heavy body.

The species was described in 1922 from New Mexico fossils. Its name refers to the Ojo Alamo Formation, not the Texas Battle of the Alamo. Later discoveries greatly expanded the material assigned to it.
