A magnificent replica and an impressive addition to your collection!
The Apatosaur is an herbivore of the sauropod family, that lived in North America during the Late Jurassic Period. It’s famous for its incredible size and its long spine. Adults could measure up to 69 feet long, 26 feet high and reach a weight of up to 30 tons, making him one of the most imposing animals to have crossed the Earth! His size was his main asset in case of an attack, he could stand on his hind legs to impress his enemies, but also push back with his tail like a whip. He was nonetheless a peaceful dinosaur whose diet consisted mainly of ferns and tree leaves that he ate directly from the top of the tree. The Apatosaur is oftentimes confused with the Brontosaurus, but the Brontosaurus is categorized as its own genus, with its own distinct characteristics. The Apatosaur hatched from enormous eggs, about 1 foot wide! The figurine is highly detailed with a natural color-scheme that replicates the real animal, making the figure extremely realistic looking.
