Cooper officially confirmed as the largest dinosaur ever unearthed in Australia.

The dinosaur has been scientifically named Australotitan cooperensis.

The new species of giant sauropod is thought to be in the top 15 of the largest dinosaurs in the world, entering an elite group of titanosaurs previously only discovered in South America.

I seen that in the TV news this morning …OMG I’m glad I wasn’t here when they roamed around
Australia @RnR
We never got close to the area mentioned in todays story due to only having a Holden Ute to tow the van when we traveled for 2 years . ( The car restricted us from going off road in places mainly due to the ground clearance rather than the cars capability)
.
However we did explore Winton ( Queensland ) who claimed to be the dinosaur capital
