...wonderful mystery. And as I searched for more, I would find more. If I put my hand in a river, I would get a crayfish.

Fortunately for other dinos that walked the earth in about 110 million years B.C., this giant was a vegetarian and probably snacked on pine needles and ferns. It was similar in size and overall shape to the beast most people still think of--despite a highly unpopular renaming a few years ago--as Brontosaurus. The University of Oklahoma paleontologists who found the new species have named it, aptly, Sauroposeidon, after the Greek sea god.
