Reply to comment by could_use_a_snack in Sauropod specimen found in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region may have had the longest neck of any known dinosaur — measuring about 15.1 m, more than the height of the Hollywood sign by marketrent

We don't have full skeletons of these animals, so things like how they held their necks is still debated among scientists.

We see sauropods depicted this way all the time, because it's the most widely accepted theory on how they looked, based on the information we do have on them, as well as comparisons with similar modern-day animals.
