Fruita, Colorado Riggs and crew found nearly two thirds of an "Apatosaurus excelsus" skeleton (commonly known as a Brontosaurus) on the northeast side of Dinosaur Hill, in Fruita. This is still considered to be one of the finest specimens known. Later, other sauropod bones were also found, which eventually led to the landmark's name. The animals were from the late Jurassic Age (150 million years ago) and within the Morrison Formation. Fossils of the "Fruitadens" (a heterodontosaurid dinosaur), the world's smallest known plant-eating dinosaur, were first found in the Fruita Paleontological Area (within the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area) off Kings View
Dinosaur Park dinosaurs at the now closed Dinosaur World in Beaver, Arkansas. The park is located at 940 Skyline Drive and is maintained by the city of Rapid City. Admission is free, however steep flagstone stairs may limit handicapped accessibility. The park was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 21, 1990. Dinosaurs represented in the park include "Apatosaurus", "Tyrannosaurus rex", "Triceratops", "Stegosaurus", and an "Edmontosaurus annectens" (formerly "Anatotitan" which itself formerly "Trachodon"). A "Protoceratops" and a "Dimetrodon" ("Dimetrodon" is not actually a dinosaur, but rather a synapsid, and more closely related to mammals than reptiles) were added later
