The Snorkosaurus (also called the Terrible Snorkosaurus) is a species of aquatic dinosaur featured in The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show. They live in Bedrock's Granite Lake.
Background[]
They are giant purple amphibious dinosaurs resembling the brontosaurus and snorkasaurus but with flipper-like front legs, dorsal fins, a tail-fin on the end of their tail, fin-like ears. They are very rare and feared by many cavemen (hence the title of "Terrible") due to their rash behavior, causing many to believe that they are the most dangerous animals in the world, but they are in fact friendly and herbivorous creatures that enjoy eating rockberries, however their playful nature and large size make them quite destructive even if they are peaceful. Because of this they have little use in caveman society outside of being an attraction at a zoo (if the zoo can hold it).
In the episode, "The Terrible Snorkosaurus" from The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show, Pebbles once caught a Snorkosaurus in the hopes of selling it to Bedrock's Sea Rock World for a thousand dollars, however the Snorkosaurus (while friendly and known as Snorky) proved to uncontrollable and Pebbles had to return her new friend to the wild.

Notes/Trivia[]
- Its name may originate from a practice called snorkeling, due to its ability to breath both in water and on land.
- The Snorkosaurus kind of resembles Tanystropheus, a long-necked semi-aquatic carnivorous reptile in the Triassic period, but unlike the Tanystropheus, the Snorkosaurus has hair, fins and have a herbivorous diet (including rockberries).
