Saltasaurus is a genus of titanosaurid sauropod dinosaur that lived 80-66 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period in the Mesozoic era. Alpha, who is a Saltasaurus, was the central character of Dinosaur Planet's fourth and final episode, Alpha's Egg.
Saltasaurus is the main subject of the episode. The scene with the eggs drowning is a reenactment of what may have happened to the fossilized nests discovered in the Auca Mahuevo dig-site.
Trivia[]
