Trivia[edit]
- In all games this fossil appears in, Blathers references that Brontosaurus excelsus, first described in 1879, was reclassified in 1903 as an Apatosaurus due to its similarities with earlier specimens. However, in 2015, new studies seemed to find enough differences between the two and suggested Brontosaurus be reconsidered a valid genus.

Real-world information[edit]
Apatosaurus was a herbivorous sauropod dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Jurassic period. It reached over 20 meters long and weighed around 20 tons, although some specimens have been estimated to be even larger. Despite its size, its diet appears to have consisted primarily of ground-level plants.
