Orrin Hatch is presumably happy to learn of another long-lost relative.
In S.A. at that time there was something even larger than T-Rex. Giganortosaurus.(spelling?)
Looks like I was off by 10 or so million years.
“Giganotosaurus is a genus of theropod dinosaur that lived in what is now Argentina, during the early Cenomanian age of the Late Cretaceous period, approximately 98 to 97 million years ago.
The holotype specimen was discovered in the Candeleros Formation of Patagonia in 1993, and is almost 70% complete.” Wikipedia
For a long time, Tyrannosaurus rex “king of the dinosaurs” was thought to be the largest carnivorous dinosaur. Today, Giganotosaurus is believed to have been slightly larger than T. rex, though even Giganotosaurus ranks behind Spinosaurus in size among the meat-eating dinosaurs.
