Titanosaurs were a group of large, long-necked dinosaurs in the Sauropod family that contained the largest land animals the world has ever seen. Even the smallest Titanosaurs were huge, growing about 23 feet long and weighing about 11 tons (22,000 lbs.) Amongst the largest Titanosaurs, Patagotitan mayorum could grow to 137 feet and weighed 70-77 tons (about as heavy as 10 to 14 African Elephants). Suffice it to say, these things were big.
Titanosaurs were widespread and their fossils have been found on all continents (even antarctica!), but the largest species lived primarily in modern Patagonia (hence the name Patagotitan) and Argentina.
