Giganotosaurus (/ ˌ ɡ ɪ ɡ ə ˌ n oʊ t ə ˈ s ɔː r ə s / GIG-ə-NOH-tə-SOR-əs [2]) is a genus of large theropod dinosaur that lived in what is now Argentina, during the early Cenomanian age of the Late Cretaceous period, approximately 99.6 to 95 million years ago.
The largest species was Tyrannosaurus rex, the most massive known terrestrial predator, which measured over 13 metres (43 ft) in length [2] and according to most modern estimates up to 8.87 metric tons (9.78 short tons) in weight. [3] [4] Tyrannosaurids were bipedal carnivores with massive skulls filled with large teeth. Despite their large ...
Yutyrannus was a large bipedal predator. The holotype and oldest-known specimen has an estimated length of 9 metres (29.5 ft) and an estimated weight of about 1,414 kilograms (3,117 lb). [ 1 ] In 2016, Gregory S. Paul gave lower estimations of 7.5 metres (24.6 ft) and 1.1 tonnes (1.2 short tons). [ 4 ]
The dinosaur lived 150 million years ago in the late Jurassic period, making it millions of years older than the terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex that roamed the Earth some 66 million to 68 million ...
The remains have been lost, but the sacrum drawing remains. It suggests a sacrum of almost 1.3 m (4.3 ft) long, [435] making it the largest dinosaur sacrum discovered so far, except those of Argentinosaurus and Apatosaurus. [436] In 2010, the femur of a large sauropod was discovered in France. The femur suggests an animal that grew to immense ...
Purussaurus is an extinct genus of giant caiman that lived in South America during the Miocene epoch, from the Friasian to the Huayquerian in the SALMA classification. It is known from skull material found in the Brazilian and Peruvian Amazon, Argentina, Colombian Villavieja Formation, Panamanian Culebra Formation, Urumaco and Socorro Formations of northern Venezuela.
Most of the largest herbivorous specimens on record were discovered in the 1970s or later, and include the massive titanosaur Argentinosaurus huinculensis, which is the largest dinosaur known from uncontroversial and relatively substantial evidence, estimated to have been 70–80 t (77–88 short tons) and 36 m (118 ft) long.
Original Halloween Monsters Werewolves, mummies, vampires and witches are some of the first things that come to mind (maybe aside from Jack-o-lanterns !) when anyone mentions Halloween.
