What is being measured?
The Identification section gives a 9 m neck. This measures the neck rather than total body length. This is a museum-published reconstruction estimate, not an exact living-animal measurement.
Use the named object, variant and dimension. A manufactured or natural object can differ from this reference.

One Mamenchisaurus youngi neck represents approximately 105 card lengths measured end to end. This is a length ratio; it does not calculate how the objects pack or fit.
