Scientists found the remains of the world ' s largest dinosaur length from a third football field and an approximate weight from the largest horbon whale, which is about 48 tons. The found remains belonged to the largest known land dinosaurs, reported in the magazine Scientific Reports.
This dinosaur, as yet unnamed, has been on Earth about 100 million years ago, about 10 million years earlier than his other titanosawares. So far, the dinosaur found is the largest on Earth. It has a length of 37, 2 meters, approximately one third of the length of the football field.

Dinosaurs, known as Notocolossus gonzalezparejasi, to which the dinosaur was originally identified, they were in the vicinity of Patagonia during the meal period about 86 million years ago. They had a long neck that allowed them to eat food both from the Earth and from the top of trees, and a long-lasting tail that protected them from enemies. However, scholars tend to see the dinosaur found as a representative of another species, as he lived much earlier.
Opening is particularly important because the remains have made it possible to understand how these huge creatures have moved on Earth. The huge vertebra vertebrae (approximately 1,500 millimetres at maximum cross size) was filled with air. So the bones were strong, but the lungs allowed the dinosaurs to move on Earth confidently.
