Williston, their fossils unveiled a remarkable species defined by elongated heads, lengthy tails, and robust legs. The largest Diplodocus specimen known measures a staggering 25 meters in length (80 feet) with a body mass exceeding 14 metric tons. These gentle giants were strict herbivores, exclusively feasting on plant matter.
