Brachiosaurus V2 (SciiFii)

Brachiosaurus americanum (name meaning "American arm lizard") is a species of tall sauropod dinosaur that originally lived in North America during the Late Jurassic, about 154–153 million years ago, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike Sciifii's first Brachiosaurus species, has been introduced to the modern open woodlands and grasslands across North America to help boost biodiversity. Brachiosaurus americanum is a large sauropod and can grow between 18 and 21 meters (59 and 69 feet) long; weight range from 28.3 to 58 metric tons (31.2 and 64 short tons). It has a disproportionately long neck, small skull, and large overall size, all of which are typical for sauropods. Atypically, Brachiosaurus americanum has longer forelimbs than hindlimbs, which results in a steeply inclined trunk, and a proportionally shorter tail. It is a high browser, cropping or nipping vegetation as high as 9 meters (30 ft) off the ground, such as fruits, leaves, pine needles, and nuts, but it requires swallowing stones in order to grind up food in its stomach. Unlike most other sauropods, it is unsuited for rearing on its hindlimbs, unlike how fiction such as Jurassic Park showed. The conservation status of Brachiosaurus americanum is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
