Palaeontologists believe the creature would have weighed 77 tonnes

If you thought they don’t come much bigger than the Tyrannosaurus rex and the Argentinosaurus then think again – scientists in Argentina have uncovered the bones of a creature believed to be the world’s biggest dinosaur.

According to the measurements of its gigantic thigh bones, the herbivore would have been 40m (130ft) long and 20m (65ft) tall, the BBC reported.

Palaeontologists think it is a new species of titanosaur – part of a diverse group of sauropod dinosaurs that were characterised by their long necks and tails and small heads – dating from the Cretaceous period.

The mega dino would have weighed in at 77 tonnes (the equivalent of approximately 14 elephants), making it seven tonnes heavier than the previous record holder Argentinosaurus.

A farm worker discovered the fossilised remains in desert land near La Flecha, which is around 250km (135 miles) west of Trelew, Patagonia.
