It Seems To Me,

that every few months a 'new' dinosaur is discovered,

It would have measured about 5–6.5 meters (16–21 feet) tall and 25–30 meters (82–98 feet) long with a weight of around 70 tons. This would make the dinosaur as long as a basketball court and as tall as a two-story building,

It has generated huge excitement in Australia because not only is Australotitan the largest dinosaur to have roamed the continent, but it can also claim to be one of the top five largest dinosaurs in the world by length and mass, and of course the creature has a nickname, the dinosaur is also known as the Southern Titan, give it a couple of months or so and another new dinosaur will be discovered, I am sure of it!
