I think it'd be interesting to feature one of the first sauropods in this episode. Objections? Ideas?

It's certainly an interesting Dino, but my main query with it is that there isn't any other known animals from the region.

That was the only problem I had with it too.

Is anything known from rocks where Antetonitrus have been found?

Done some digging, and It appears that Antetonitrus is from the Late Triassic of the Lower Elliot Formation.
Other species from the same range include;

Blikanasaurus (Sauropodomorph)
Euskelosaurus (Sauropodomorph)
Melanorosaurus (Sauropodomorph)

The three I mentioned aren't true Sauropods though, Antetonirtus is a true Sauropod.
There would likely be other animals in the area too, we could put in generic Theropods and the like.

Hence why I said sauropodomorph....

Still, doesn't look like it would make for a very long segment.

This topic is now for a segment covering sauropodomorphs in the Triassic. We now have an excuse to show Mussaurus and Plateosaurus.
