1. Brontosaurus And Triceratops Coloring PDF
Let’s get things started with a what-if scenario. What if a Brontosaurus had been able to meet a Triceratops? Sadly, outside of films like Jurassic Park, this would have been impossible due to them existing a few million years apart from each other.
2. Brontosaurus Exploring Outside
When a Brontosaurus walked by, it would be hard to miss it! You’ll notice that this Brontosaurus has its tail raised in the air, which is scientifically accurate. Scientists believed that they dragged their tails for a long time, but now they believe that they used their tails for balance.
3. Brontosaurus Drinking Water From A Lake
Much like giraffes, when Brontosaurus would drink from a lake, the water had a long way to travel to reach its body! Getting to witness the process does make for a peaceful scene to color, though.
4. Brontosaurus Footprint In Muddy Ground
Because the Brontosaurus was so big and heavy, it would leave some pretty impressive footprints. Paleontologists have found a few fossilized footprints that they believe could have been made by Brontosaurus.
5. Brontosaurus Bones In A Museum
Seeing a Brontosaurus skeleton in a museum is an awe-inspiring sight that lets you get an idea of its immense size! There were a few decades where paleontologists believed that Brontosaurus wasn’t actually a real species but was instead misidentified as another sauropod species. However, they regained existence privileges in 2015 when paleontologists decided they were a unique species after all!
6. Brontosaurus Herd Crossing A Plain
Unless we can create a time machine, we’ll never know for sure how dinosaurs behaved, but paleontologists do believe that Brontosaurus lived and moved in herds, crossing great distances in their migration.
7. Brontosaurus In A Prehistoric Jungle
There is plenty for this Brontosaurus to eat in this scene! They belong to a dinosaur group called sauropods, meaning herbivores with long necks. Because of their height, they would usually eat from taller trees.
8. Brontosaurus Next To A Volcano
No dinosaur that wants to remain alive would be wise to stay next to an erupting volcano! Some paleontologists even believe that erupting volcanoes may have contributed to the fall of the dinosaurs. This Brontosaurus doesn’t seem all that worried about the volcano, though.
9. Brontosaurus On A Cliff
If a Brontosaurus were to stand on top of a cliff, it would have a great view of everything below it! There doesn’t seem to be much for this Brontosaurus to behold in this valley, though. Perhaps you could draw some cool details in the distance for it to see.
10. Brontosaurus Resting Near Rocks Coloring Sheet
Much as we will never know exactly how dinosaurs behaved, we will never know exactly what colors and markings they would have had. While paleontologists believe that some dinos may have had feathers, they believe that Brontosaurus did not, and that they looked more or less as we have imagined them.
11. Brontosaurus Against A Sunset
Sunsets make everything more beautiful, and seeing a Brontosaurus framed by the setting sun is going to look absolutely awe-inspiring once you have added some beautiful colors.
12. Brontosaurus In A Cartoon Style
Many kids adore dinosaurs, and it’s easy to see why! This cartoony take on a Brontosaurus would be perfect for younger dinosaur fans to take on.
13. Brontosaurus Under Tall Ferns
For most dinosaurs, reaching the fronds of a tall fern would be hard to achieve, but it wouldn’t be a challenge for a Brontosaurus! Despite how huge Brontosaurus was, it had a tiny brain around the size of a lime. That’s a small brain to control such a huge body!
14. Brontosaurus Walking Through A Forest
A forest stroll is a wonderful thing, but for a Brontosaurus, it would be a very different experience, as they would tower above most trees.
15. Brontosaurus With A Baby
Isn’t this scene of a Brontosaurus with its baby just too adorable? Despite the fact that an adult Brontosaurus could weigh almost 20 tons, a newborn baby would only weigh around 10 or 15 pounds.
16. Brontosaurus In Front Of Mountains
I love to see what prehistoric environments may have looked like, and this scene shows a Brontosaurus in front of a stunning mountain setting. There are so many details for you to color here!
17. Brontosaurus By A River
A river would be a gathering place for many dinosaurs, as the one thing they shared in common was that they all needed to drink. It’s not so different for the animals that roam the planet today, now that I think of it.
18. Cartoon Brontosaurus Eating Leaves
It’s time for a delicious meal, and this Brontosaurus is really digging into those leaves!
19. Detailed Brontosaurus With Textured Skin
The textured details on this Brontosaurus are really intricate, and they would be easier to color with some colored pens or pencils.
