Current Goal

I am DinoRacer-Apatosaurus TB. I am racing my siblings to the Douglass Quarry at the Dinosaur National Monument near Jensen, Utah (N 40° 26.43', W 109° 18.11'). Then return to Michigan to Valhalla GeoCache - GCJK7D (N 42° 39.157’, W 084° 30.432’). My siblings are DinoRacer-Stegosaurus TB, DinoRacer-Styracosaurus TB , and DinoRacer-Tyrannosaurus TB. Please post a picture of me at the National Monument then send me back to Michigan.

About This Item

DinoRacer-Apatosaurus TB

APATOSAURUS
“Deceptive Lizard,” named by Othniel C. Marsh, 1877. Also known as Brontosaurus, or “thunder lizard,” named by Marsh in 1879. First found at Morrison, Colorado. Adult length, 70 to 75 feet. Estimated weight, 34 tons. Although this is one of the best-known of all dinosaurs, to both the public and scientists, it has never been found with a skull attached to its neck. The only known skull that probably belonged to it was found in the Dinosaur National Monument Quarry in the first years of excavation. This enormous plant-eater measured about 15 feet tall at the hips. Its head was less than 2 feet long; it had a long skull and a very tiny brain. This plant-eater had a long neck (with 15 vertebrae), a long whip-like tail (about 50 ft long), a hollow backbone, peg-like teeth in the front of the jaws, and four massive, column-like legs. Its hind legs were larger than the front legs. Fossilized Apatosaurus footprints (called trackways) have been found in Colorado that were about a yard wide.
