Today, the biggest animal on land is the African elephant. It can grow to be 13 feet high, and weigh 14,000 pounds. That`s nothing when you compare it to Titanosaur. Scientists believe this thing was as long as two tractor trailers and weigh 180,000 pounds. They recently got some perspective on how big that is from fossils in South America.

如今世界上最大的陸地動物是非洲象,它可以生長到13英尺高,重達14,000磅。這和雷龍比起來還是不足掛齒。科學家認為這個大家伙有兩個拖拉機拖車那么大,重達180,000磅。最近他們從南美洲發(fā)現(xiàn)的化石中找到了一些答案。

Godzilla is back on top of the box office, and while this gigantic lizard is just a fiction, this may have been the real Godzilla of its day. Small by movie standards, but likely the biggest dinosaur to ever roam the planet.

哥斯拉榮登票房首位,但是這種巨型蜥蜴只存在于科幻小說,而這個大家伙才是真正的哥斯拉。雖然比電影標準要小,但是卻是地球上有史以來最大的恐龍。

This is the largest femur known from any animal that has walked on Earth.

這是已知地球上所有行走動物中最大的股骨。

This giant thigh bone, a part of an amazing discovery in Argentina where paleontologists say they`ve uncovered the fossilized remains of a new species of Titanosaur. A gigantic dinosaur that lived some 95 million years ago, had a long neck and long tail, worked on four legs and ate plants. Scientists call it a truly colossal creature weighing the same as 14 elephants.

這個巨大的大腿骨是古生物學家在阿根廷驚人發(fā)現(xiàn)的一部分,并表示他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了雷龍化石遺跡的新物種。這種巨型恐龍生活在9500萬年前,擁有長脖子和長尾巴,靠四條腿走路,以食植物為生。科學家稱這才是真正巨型生物,足足有14頭大象那樣重。

This animal measured up to 40 meters long, and with the head upright would have measured 20 meters tall. Equivalent to a seven-story building, which is surely the height at which they ate.

經(jīng)測量,這種動物有40米長,頭部抬起的話有20米高,近乎一棟七層樓房的高度,也肯定就是他們所吃植物的高度。

Paleontologists say that Titanosaur was found in a massive field of fossils, a virtual dinosaur cemetery. They found at least seven more sets of remains and hundreds more bones. Some of which are now on display at a nearby museum.

古生物學家說雷龍在一堆恐龍化石中被發(fā)現(xiàn),實際上就是恐龍墓地。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了至少七個化石遺體,數(shù)以百計的骨頭。它們中的一些現(xiàn)在正在附近博物館進行展覽。

Experts are related calling the discovery a treasure trove of information providing new insights into an ancient chapter of earth history.

專家稱這一發(fā)現(xiàn)是發(fā)現(xiàn)了信息寶庫可以為了解古代地球歷史提供更多新信息。
