Amphicoelias (SciiFii)

Amphicoelias adohomo (name meaning "biconcave created by man") is a species of herbivorous sauropod dinosaur that originally lived approximately 150 million years ago during the Tithonian (Late Jurassic Period) of what is now Colorado, United States, as an extinct species, Amphicoelias altus, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction and introduced throughout the modern open woodlands and grasslands across North America to help boost biodiversity. Amphicoelias adohomo is moderately sized at about 25 meters (82 ft) long, roughly the same length as Diplodocus, to which it is related. Its hindlimbs are very long and thin, and its forelimbs are proportionally longer than in relatives. Amphicoelias adohomo is a herbivore like most advanced sauropods, feeding mainly on leaves of ferns, cyacads, horsetails, conifers, and among other evergreen trees, but can sometimes feed on fruits and nuts. It is a social herd-dwelling animal, living in groups up to around 10-15 at a time in most cases, but can occasionally live in herds as much as around 50-75 if there's enough space and food for them. The females live in herds throughout almost all their lives, while males live in solitary lives, in a manner similar to elephants, and during mating seasons, males visit nearby herds and clash with other males until one backs down, that's when a winning male Amphicoelias adohomo gets a right to mate with any of the herds' females. The conservation status of Amphicoelias adohomo is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
