Argentinosaurus — size comparison — facts and sources

Argentinosaurus was an enormous herbivorous titanosaur of Cretaceous South America. It is reconstructed as a quadruped with a long neck and tail and weight supported by powerful limbs.

The species was described during the nineteen-nineties from a small part of the skeleton, including huge vertebrae. It is among candidates for the largest land animals. Size estimates depend heavily on assumed proportions of missing body parts.
