Barapasaurus — size comparison — facts and sources

Barapasaurus was an early large sauropod from present-day India. In the Jurassic it already had a substantial body supported by four limbs, with a long neck and tail. It shows that very large herbivorous dinosaurs appeared early in this lineage’s history.

Its name refers to the large legs important for supporting the body. Head reconstruction requires particular caution when preserved material lacks a complete skull.
