dinosaurs!

trelew, chubut

There were discovered many dinosaurs at Patagonia.. one, the " Giganotosaurus CAROLINII", is considered the largest carnivorous dinosaur in the world, and surpasses the famous Tyranosaurus Rex in size. It was discovered in July, 1993, by Rubén Darío Carolini, present Director of the Villa El Chocón Municipal Museum, in a former lagoon located 18 km to the South of Villa El Chocón.
Another one is the Argentinosaurus Huinculensis
Named Huinculensis after the district of Plaza Huincul where its fossil remains were found, in the Province of Neuquen. This is the largest herbivorous dinosaur found so far. Its size is even larger than the "Carolinii", which was a carnivore.
At Trelew there is a so good museum, . the Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio.
Since its opening 11 years ago, the MEF has become an international reference for Paleontology and one of the most important scientific institutions in Argentina. The MEF was not intended to be one more stop along the region’s tourist circuit, but rather a destination in its own right.
I made this image there..
