They were a herd animal weren't they? Can you imagine a herd of Sauroposeidon. They would have been magnificent. I wonder if there were mixed herds.
Indeed they are my top favorites, i go crazy for the gigantic ones. Sure they should have been herd animals. To see a herd of any giant sauropods eating and roaming will be awesome. The land would shake when the largest of them walk. You would hear sounds like dum dum dum....

Saltasaurus was relatively small compared to it's gigantic cousins. This small armored sauropod had a short neck and stubby limbs. It was upto 12 m (40 ft) in length and weighed about 7 tonnes.
Fossils have been found in South America (Argentina).
