Stories Tips

What are some stories about the brontosaurus? Memorable brontosaurus stories, wild encounters, and fan fiction.
I had a great Bronto named Bob, He was great and reliable. I always gathered berries and wood for my tribe. Bob was an absolute beast in combat. He could easily destroy high level Rexes. One sad day, I returned to base. I was on an Argentavis and was flying around. I saw a few strong dinos heading straight to our base. We were about to get raided. They attacked us and shred our base. We fought them with our dinos. Bob started to shred through them. Bob bought us enough time to escape. He fought until his last stand. R.I.P Bob
So...I was crafted more wooden things in the south of the islands,theres no other dinos beside trikes and annoying diplo,out of nowhere i found these big blue eggs and it says Bronto Egg and y know what i did?yes,steal it!then from far away the trees start falls apart and something big rise out of a trees and yup its a mad mamma bronto come to save the egg and tailwipe my whole dilos team and parasaurs to death and i start run into woods away from mad mamma and i lose the mad mamma a few sprint,its not only team got wiped even my base home got half wiped as well loll
Stole an egg and got killed with my pteranodon. Whent back for my stuff and the bronto (lvl 10)started chasing me again since I had the egg. I managed to trap her in a stoney area and knock her out with 30 tranq arrows. Took a little while for the tranquilizer to kick in but I managed to tame her in the end. While that happened, 2 of my trikes I had set to passive mated and had a lv35 kid. Unfortunately it died after I forget to put food in its inventory while I went to check on the brontos taming progress.
Its not brontosaurus! Its apatosaurus!
Im writing this tip to explain why people call it brontosaurus anyway btw.
Ok. So, paleontologists discover a sauropod (long necked herbivorous dinosaur) and named it apatosaurus. A few years later, they discover another sauropod, and name it brontosaurus. A while later, they discover that the bones called brontosaurus, were actually just apatosaurus bones. Meaning there was no brontosaurus. Since the name apatosaurus was given first, paleontologists chose that as the correct name. Yet some people still call it brontosaurus. I just thought id just throw that out there.😅
Everyone, for information,
Apatosaurus was discovered first
Scientists thought Brontosaurus was a different dinosaur
Then they thought it wasn't a different dinosaur
Then they studied it again and found differences between the Brontosaurus and Apatosaurus skeletons.
I'm fairly sure they're not the same.
I used to hated these things for the one reason: they kept spawning right at my base. With their stomping around it got pretty annoying since the ground would shake, especially if it got stuck between my stuff. Can't punch it either since it would destroy all of my things when it gets mad.
Ok so as I was coming back from the hidden lake I saw a Rex. My saber, Annora, was close behind. I was so scared, all my tames where close… then the Rex started to attack a bronto,I brought Annora to a small tree. I remembered how many brontos the Rex killed. I went to go fight, but my health was low, I nearly died.Then the bronto killed the Rex! The Rex was blocking my way to a mountain. Now it was safe! My tames and I were safe! One upvoot, one respect for the killer Rex bronto
Ok this is weird but, me and my friend were playing when i saw a level 3 bronto and attempted to tame it with tranq arrows and a bow (apprentice) and I made a huge mistake my friend was telling me to not let it go to the water cuz it'll drown and it torpor run away from me so i chased it with my petrie but it died to a meg so after a while i got a primitive crossbow and this time i got it i immediately fed it carbonemys kibbles and i named her Ali (from land before time).
