It’s like a giraffe!
          
        
        
          
            Brachiosaurus
          
        
        
          had longer forelimbs than
        
        
          hind limbs so its back sloped down to
        
        
          its hindquarters – rather like a giraffe.
        
        
          But
        
        
          
            Brachiosaurus
          
        
        
          could reach two or
        
        
          three times higher than a giraffe.
        
        
          Fifteen.
        
        
          
            Sauropods
          
        
        
          
            193
          
        
        
          
            Up high
          
        
        
          
            Brachiosaurus
          
        
        
          nibbled
        
        
          leaves at the tops of
        
        
          trees. Its long neck may
        
        
          have developed so
        
        
          
            Brachiosaurus
          
        
        
          could feed
        
        
          where other plant-eaters
        
        
          could not reach.
        
        
          Sauropods had long
        
        
          tails that helped to
        
        
          balance their bodies.
