A fossilized dinosaur skeleton discovered
Dinosaur : four years ago, a rancher near La Flecha in Argentina’s Patagonia region found an old bone sticking out of his desert property. He was discovered keeping in mind the recent news of the exciting dinosaur finds in that country. He then went to a local museum to ask paleontologists to find more fossils.
The most impressive of these dinosaurs from the far south of South America, assembled from 84 fossil fragments dug up from a dinosaur rancher’s land, are the newest eyes on ancient life to be put on display at the American Museum of Natural History in Manhattan.

Based on the size of its bone, researchers estimate that it weighed 70 tons—as much as 10 African elephants, making it the heaviest land animal alive today.
