Largest Possible Dinosaur
As you may have guessed from its name, the remains of Argentinosaurus were discovered in contemporary Argentina, in South America. To date, researchers haven't found a complete skeleton, however they have found--four-foot long vertebrae and five-foot-long tibiae--indicate that Argentinosaurus was a really a massive sauropod dinosaur. Simply how much massive was Argentinosaurus? Well, some reliable estimates place this massive Argentinosaurus at more than 120 feet from head to tail and weight more than 100 tons.
It was no fact a herbivore dinosaur and their predators which scientists believe is Giganotosaurus which was Bi-pedal 27 feet tall carnivore dinosaur weighing 8 tonns, but it is not possible for Giganotosaurus to attack such massive Argentinosaurus alone so may be in packs they hunt them.
Mysteries are still there as even bigger Amphicoelias (200 feet 125 ton) and Bruhathkaysaurus (150 feet 200 tons) may be found but there is no clear evidence and still lot of research have to be done on these two dinosaurs, so currently Argentinosaurus is record holder largest dinosaur.
