Description: The Brontosaurs on Skull Island were a bit more omnivorous than scientists would lead you to believe; this one attacked a raft and ate some sailors. Not that much meat for a Brontosaurus, really; kind of like when you eat a meatball, especially if that meatball has tiny crunchy bones and is screaming.

Description: On a remote island deep in the Pacific Ocean, this creature was caught on film enjoying palm fronds and other succulents. Of course, any time a Brontosaurus is spotted, it is likely to be eating; they have to devour about 880 pounds (400 kilograms) of vegetation every day!
