The whole body skeleton model of the world's largest dinosaurs will be shown for the first time, the original fossil is one femur and is about 500 kg in big size

On January 15, 2016, in New York / ManhattanAmerican Museum of Natural HistoryThe whole body skeleton of the world's largest dinosaur, which is about 37 m in length and was created based on the most enormous of dinosaur fossils discovered in recent years, has been released. this isTitano SaurusAlthough it is known that it is a dinosaur, it is clear that it is a fossil of a new kind of dinosaur that has never been discovered, and the official name is not attached yet as it is just discovered That's right.

The whole skeleton of Titanoosaurus was restored based on the femur (Titanosaurus) of the Titanosaurus excavated by Mr. Diego Pol (Argentine paleontologist) (above). The picture below is a two-shot picture of Mr. Por and the femur, the size of the femur is about 2.4 m, the weight is about 500 kg.


Since this femur was found, it is in ArgentinaMEFIt seems that the museum named Mr. Por and Mr. Por cooperated to advance excavation work. As a result, we have succeeded in finding over 200 new fossils of huge dinosaurs. The number of bones is equivalent to about 70% of the original skeleton.

And among the found fossils, four good ones (each larger than 1 meter in size) are exhibited at the American Natural History Museum along with a whole body skeleton model. The whole body skeleton model has a total length of 37 meters, made of lightweight fiberglass cast, it has enough strength to support the real fossils.


This is the real fossil exhibited.


A lot of media gathered at the unveiling ceremony of the whole body skeleton and it seems that it was overwhelmed by its huge size. The whole skeleton of the dinosaur stretches his head like looking in from the next room, but this is not a director, it is too huge so it did not fit in the hall of the American Museum of Natural History.



Hello Hello "and so on, the neck has just protruded into the next-door room.


It is also clear that dinosaurs, the owner of the bones found, are not adults, even though this is just a huge dinosaur. This is because this kind of animal seems to fuse a specific bone when it becomes adult but because it is confirmed that the bone found was not connected. The original weight of the dinosaur is presumed to be 63 tons.

One of the researchers who participated in the unveiling ceremony commented that it could deduce from which bones the dinosaurs inhabited in what age, and how old they are. Mr. Pol, who also participated in the unveiling ceremony, says "eggs of the dragon legs like Titanosaurus are about the size of volleyball"


Mike Novatchek, curator of the American Museum of Natural History, said: "The species discovered is special, as you can see from its size, it has vertebrae and thick tails on the long neck, etc. Furthermore, the teeth are distinctive Although it is not sharp, it is sharp like a tooth of a herbivorous animal. " Also, Mr. Novatchek is comparing this dinosaur's teeth to a rake, but you can check its rake teeth with the following picture.


The tail seems thin but it is thick.


Dinosaurs with long neck dinosaurs The dinosaurs in the lower legs can often see image images that are stretching the neck vertically. But Novatchek commented that these dinosaurs would normally have their neck stretched horizontally. In addition, when we eat grass, I guess that I repeatedly moved forward while drawing a large arc with my neck. This may be because the flowers that grew in the earth during the period when the dinosaurs were inhabited had lower nutritional value than current ones and there was a need to acquire means to more efficiently ingest nutrition not.




Just as I was supporting the weight of 63 tons, the foot bones are awesome.



The whole body skeleton photographed from various angles is worth a look at anyway.





Since the total length is too long, it seems that the edge will collapse or frame out no matter where you shoot.
