Measuring seventy feet (21 m) from head to tail and twenty-eight feet (9 m) tall, it weighed in at thirty tons. It roamed the land on four legs and reached for plants using its long, curved neck, like other dinosaurs in the sauropod group. It used its peg-shaped teeth to rip plants from high branches, but these teeth were not good for chewing. It swallowed its meals whole and digested them in its enormous stomach, where chemicals and bacteria helped break the plants down. Alamosaurus lived in mostly dry areas; these dinosaurs migrated in small herds from South America to North America during the Cretaceous Period. The Alamosaurus was the only sauropod from the Late Cretaceous Period in North America and one of the last of the sauropods to walk the Earth. Notes: IMPORTANT:
