Futalognkosaurus dukei, a giant titanosaur from Argentina, walking on a floodplain through the morning fog. Time to grab some breakfast! Discovered only recently in 2007, Futalognkosaurus was 100 feet long, and fed on tall conifer trees. The remains found include the entire neck, back, rib cage, and most of the hips - making it one of the biggest and most complete mega-dinosaurs known. It was a wide bodied animal with a very long, deep neck, and probably weighed around 70 tons. It lived around 90 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous, and was an important species in a major transitional phase of titanosauria, the last group of sauropods (long-necks) to evolve.
