Amazonsaurus

Dinovember day 2, amazonsaurus, colored like an orca.  I drew this while I was waiting for dinner to exist, so it was done on the my tablet; hence the scribbliness of the thing. [ID: A rough painting of an amazonsaurus, a sauropod, depicted in a dynamic pose with its head closest to the camera and its tail streaming off behind it.  The sauropod is colored black and white like an orca, and is set against a vague green and brown background. /ID]

Dinovember 2023 Day 2

Amazonsaurus // Orca

Have I told you guys before that I have very little experience drawing dinosaurs?

Believe it or not, there's some method to my madness. Because I like to go off skulls as well as previous recreations, but we don't have a skull of this thing. (To my knowledge) But an Amazonsaurus is part of the Diplodocoidea, so I based my recreation kind of on the Diplodocus. Kind of.

Listen, if you want accurate dinosaurs, I'm not the person to go to. But I'm having fun at least!

Amazonsaurus maranhensis, which for some reason I thought was a made up genus up until this point.

DINOCEMBER

4 -  Amazonsaurus maranhensis (combination from the Greek "sauros" - lizard - and Amazon) - Early Cretaceous (125-100 Ma BCE) - Itapecuru Formation, Maranhão, Brazil  

Discovered in the early 2000s, the Amazonsaurus stands out among other brazilian sauropods, non-avian dinosaurs with long necks and among the largest terrestrial animals that have ever lived, because it is one of the few that does not belong to the clade Titanosauria, being closer to the famous Diplodocus, from Jurassic in North America. A large animal, but relatively small for its order, the Amazonsaurus measured just over 12 meters in length and weighed about 5 tons, which lived in a flooded region next to a river delta, feeding on several plants that existed there. The Amazonsaurus belongs to the Rebbachisauridae family, belonging to the Diplodocimorpha, but very different from the classic image of these animals, with very long necks and tails in barrel-shaped bodies, having comparatively shorter necks, but not so much to the Dicraeosauridae, being some members of the more specialized family to graze and feed on lower plants, as in the case of the Nigersaurus, a relative of the Amazonsaurus of the Elrhaz formation, in Niger. The Rebbachisauridae and other Diplodocimorpha already became more and more rare in the beginning of the Cretaceous, being totally replaced by the immense titanosaurs in their ecological niche, being thus until the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction.
