A lot of theropods were fluffy and sauropods were scaly so I guess it makes sense that Palkia would be fluffy and Dialga would be scaly.

A new paper out today on the weird neural canal of the Snowmass Haplocanthosaurus by Matt Wedel et al.: https://t.co/vAYLMI5zgB I was proud to play a small roll on this one (my 1st sauropod paper!)

Meet Saturnalia; this unassuming dinosaur is one of the earliest, most primitive Sauropodomorphs; related to the ancestors of what will become the mighty Sauropods. Unlike it's later cousins it was small, fleet footed, and omnivorous. Remains are known from Late Triassic Brazil.

Name of "Titanosaurus" was also given to a sauropod dinosaur.

Majungasaurus had a keratinous face and a horn, which may have been used for display, defense, or both! This dinosaur also has been found with evidence of cannibalism. Its robust body wasn’t speedy like its relatives, but made up for strength to hunt prey such as sauropods!

The diplodocus, a large sauropod (long-neck), holds the record for having the longest tail! It sported around 80 caudal vertebra (wayyy more than any other sauropod); some scientists believe it could have used its tail like a whip to hit attacking predators

With around 500 teeth being replaced every few weeks, Nigersaurus was a dentist’s nightmare. It was just trying to be just like a Hadrosaur, grazing on ferns right on the ground, unlike other sauropods who preferred browsing on trees! Wow!

Aardonyx

An intermediary genus between prosauropods and sauropods, its known from 2 juvenile relatively complete specimens

ALT: its arms made it capable of moving both bipedally and quadrupedally similar to hadrosaurs, showing how small bipedal animals evolved into sauropods

Before Pokemon X/Y came out I made a post saying I want a fossil based on a sauropod. Then they were released and well. Favourite fossil mon, check. :D

Ps: A Bob Ross video might have played a role in the creation of the background - which was once again winged. Painting is fun.

Yep. Tolynn was the runt of the litter so he hitched a ride on Sauropods like a giant parasite
