Anchisaurus (ANG-kee-sawr-us) Length: 6 - 8 Feet Lived during: Early Jurassic Found:  North America, South Africa Name Means: Near Lizard Like most other prosauropods, this ancestor of such later giants as Brachiosaurus was once thought to have lived during the late Triassic period.  however, its since been proven that it actually came from the early Jurassic.  Anchisaurus had serrated teeth,  which led some scientist to think it was a meat eater.  Recent discoveries, though, show that the animal ws probably a plant eater. Lived at the same time as:  Dilophosaurus, Megalosaurus, Plesiosaurus, Scelidosaurus.
