A giant dinosaur discovered in Argentina turns out to be the largest animal in history

It is believed that the largest creature that has ever existed is the blue whale.The Biggest

  The largest land creatures were dinosaurs, and the largest of them were titanosaurs.It is a genus of herbivorous sauropod dinosaurs from the clade Lithostrotia, which lived in the Upper Cretaceous Epoch in what is now Asia, Africa, Europe and South America.

One of them, Argentinosaurus, left enough evidence to be classified as the heaviest of all titanosaurs.With a length of 36.5 m, it weighs 100 tons. Researchers studying fossils of patagothites (another titanosaur discovered in Patagonia) have suggested that some of them may have broken the record for the largest, but there are not enough fossils to support this .In any case, scientists studying the fossils discovered in 2012 have begun to believe they have found an even larger titanosaur.

It is now known that this dinosaur appeared 98million years ago (before the beginning of the Cretaceous). Among the fossils found are 24 vertebrae, which were part of a giant tail, pelvis and pectoral girdle. The sheer size of each suggests that the dinosaur was very large, even among the titanosaurs. And certainly more than all the species living on Earth.
