Scientists in Argentina have discovered the fossil remains of one of the largest dinosaurs ever to have walked the earth.

This dinosaur, Futalognkosaurus dukei, is a newly discovered species of sauropod dinosaur known as a Titanosaur.

Paleontologists believe the animal was a herbivore that stretched to over 100 feet tall and lived on the earth almost 90 million years ago.
