Scientists Identify Massive New Dinosaur Following Thailand Dig The discovery of a massive new dinosaur species in Thailand has sent shockwaves through the scientific community.
Nagatitan chaiyaphumensis, a sauropod that roamed what is now Thailand between 100 and 120 million years ago, was an imposing creature that weighed around 50 tons – equivalent to nine adult elephants.
Researchers have drawn parallels with other giant sauropods, including Dippy the Diplodocus, which weighs significantly less.
