The Dinosaur Formerly Known as Brontosaurus | Paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh discovered the remains of a previously unknown sauropod in 1877 and named it Apatosaurus. He discovered another sauropod specimen two years later and named it Brontosaurus—not realizing that they were the same dinosaur. | 75 Sauropoda |

Whip It Good | Computer modeling suggests that thin, long, tail of Apatosaurus and other diplodocids could be cracked like a whip, and would produce a sound of over 200 decibels—about as loud as a cannon being fired. | 200 Sauropoda |
