Paleontologists in Portugal Are Excavating a Dinosaur Skeleton the Size of a Four-Story House—One of the Biggest Ever Found in Europe
Five years ago, a man in Portugal noticed several bone fragments in his garden. It turns out they could belong to the largest dinosaur skeleton ever unearthed in Europe. Herbivores that walked on four legs, with long necks and tails, sauropods belong to a family that includes the brontosaurus and diplodocus, and are among the largest animals to have ever lived. This particular specimen measures 40 feet tall and 82 feet long—or roughly the size of a four-story townhouse.
