Prompt used to create the image

Scientifically accurate paleoart of Argentinosaurus, a herbivore Titanosauria dinosaur from Albian times (110.1–106.3 million years ago). An enormous sauropod about 35 meters long, one of the largest land animals ever, with a broad, wide body. Reference: Argentinosaurus is a genus of giant sauropod dinosaur that lived during the Early Cretaceous period in what is now Argentina. Although it is only known from fragmentary remains, Argentinosaurus was one of the largest known land animals of all time, measuring 30–35 m (98–115 ft) long and weighing 65–80 t. It was a member of Titanosauria, the dominant group of sauropods during the Cretaceous. Anatomy: a long neck held roughly horizontal or slightly raised; pillar-like legs; front feet are columns without claws. Full body in side view, whole animal visible, standing in a Cretaceous floodplain in Patagonia, Argentina, with tall Araucaria conifers and ferns, no grass. Natural history museum illustration style, realistic textures and natural daylight, muted natural colors. No text, no labels, no humans, no modern objects.

Facts in the prompt come from Wikipedia (en) and Paleobiology Database

Argentinosaurus

Name meaning: Meaning "Argentina lizard".

Herbivore

📏 Perhaps up to about 35 m long, longer than three buses end to end, and weighing many tens of tonnes.

Find it in a game

Argentinosaurus was a titanosaur sauropod from Argentina and one of the largest land animals ever found. It is known from only a few bones, such as vertebrae, ribs and part of a leg bone, so its true size is an estimate.

Fun facts

  • A single one of its backbones is taller than a primary-school child.
  • Because so few bones are known, published weight estimates differ by tens of tonnes.

Who lived alongside it

Dinosaurs found in the same rock formation as Argentinosaurus (Huincul), so they lived in the same region at roughly the same time.

Formation data from the Paleobiology Database, counting only each genus's main formations. One formation can span hundreds of thousands to millions of years, so this doesn't mean any two of them ever met.
