Brontosaurus

Bronte Zaurus was a dinosaur who lived on Little Garden.

Appearance
Zaurus was a large dinosaur with green skin and a long neck. Like more brontosauruses, he had a small head compared to its larger body.

Personality
Little is known about Zaurus's personality. He was considered a gentle but still dangerous creature by Vivi.

Abilities and Powers
Zaurus was easily able to flip Luffy up in the air on his head and swallow the pirate, but he was no match for Dorry.

Little Garden Arc
Luffy and Vivi encountered Zaurus while exploring Little Garden. Luffy climbed up Zaurus's neck and stood on top of his head to look over Little Garden. Vivi warned Luffy to get down, but the pirate did not listen. Zaurus flipped Luffy back with his head and swallowed him in one gulp. Dorry had watched this and quickly decapitated Zaurus, freeing Luffy from its esophagus. Dorry cooked Zaurus, and they ate him.

Anime and Manga Differences
In the manga, Luffy and Vivi interact with only one dinosaur, Bronte Zaurus. In the anime, the scene is extended and includes multiple brontosauruses. Luffy and Vivi first encounter a young brontosaurus, and Luffy tries to get it to take him to another part of the island by grabbing and turning its head. The young brontosaurus cries out, and a group of adult brontosauruses comes to help it. Luffy swings and jumps between all of their heads before landing on a darker one covered in small scars. This is the one that swallows Luffy and is killed by Dorry in the anime. Because the roles of Bronte Zaurus are split between two brontosauruses, the young one and the scarred one, a clear identification cannot be made.

Trivia

 * Bronte Zaurus's name is very similar to the Japanese word for brontosaurus (ブロントサウルス). The unique spelling is maintained in other One Piece media, like One Piece Treasure Cruise.
