Some paleontologists have suggested that Apatosaurus, a huge dinosaur, was able to gallop  This, however, is unlikely, because galloping would probably have broken Apatosaurus' s legs  Experiments with modern bones show how much strain they can withstand before breaking
By taking into account the diameter and density of Apatosaurus leg bones, it is possible to calculate that those bones could not have withstood the strains of galloping
The claim of paleontologists that Apatosaurus was able to gallop is likely to be incorrect.
