Dinosaur Skeleton Discovered In Portugal Man's Backyard Can Be Europe's Biggest Discovery Ever
Remains of what may be Europe's biggest dinosaur were discovered in man's back garden in Portugal. Paleontologists discovered fragments of the dinosaur's spine and ribs, indicating that the massive reptile stood roughly 12 meters (39 feet) tall and was 25 meters (82 feet) long. Paleontologists from Spain and Portugal uncovered the dinosaur and believe it was a sauropod. Sauropods were the largest dinosaurs and largest terrestrial creatures ever to exist.
