Camarasaurus was a giant, plant-eating dinosaur that walked on four thick legs. Its name means “chambered lizard”. It was the most common long-necked found in North America.

The blunt snout with many natural holes, and was sturdy enough that paleontologists frequently found it in good condition.

The extreme strength of these spatulate teeth shows that the animal probably ate very course plant material. Like most sauropods, its front limbs were shorter than its hind legs, and each front foot had five toes, with the inner toe bearing a large, sharpened claw for defense.
