A new species of dinosaur has been found in Argentina. About 70% of the key bones needed to describe the organism have been found according to scientists. This makes it different from many other titansaur fossils, which have been very fragmentary.

Here is more information, courtesy of the BBC.

And here are some pictures that demonstrate the size that we are talking about:

Deutsche Welle has a story on the newly described dinosaur. They are using 3D printers to create a replica of the skeleton as it is too large to string together through standard techniques.

That is very interesting news, and a large dinosaur too. Interesting news indeed, thanks for posting the news here.

I've recently taken some interest into paleontology so this is great to hear
