Twice the size of the Hollywood sign: One of the largest dinosaur species in the world discovered in Australia - Yahoo News

Scientists confirmed the finding of a new species of dinosaur, Australotitan cooperensis, that was one of the largest in the world, study says.

Bones were discovered in Australia 15 years ago, and now it's known they belonged to the largest dinosaur ever found in the country.

Adding to the list of recent dinosaur discoveries, a new species of dinosaur – almost two times the size of the Hollywood sign – has been found, according to a new report. 

The fossils were discovered over a decade ago in southwest Queensland by two property owners who later opened the Eromanga Natural History Museum after discovering a number of titanosaur fossil sites.
