Several new dinosaur species have emerged from the Arctic as well.
We're starting to identify a whole brand of dinosaur—or is it different?
Well, the first signs are coming to light. The first of these is the very
largest dinosaur, a jaw-like creature about the size of a big banana.
These are the dinosaurs from Theropoda bromata and Theropodae.
In addition to being giant, the jaw-like creatures were created from
the tiny bones of a human. In fact, this was what makes many of these
creatures so different from the other dinosaurs and that's why they're
so spectacular. There are now about 500 known species of dinosaurs
on the planet, but one very unusual one is A. bromata, which is a giant,
hairy-headed tarantula that can weigh about 20 tons. The new species,
named M. rex, were found in northern Siberia in 2005. They're so big
and so bulky, you can't see their bodies. However, Theropods weren't
quite ready. Theropodidae wasn't even that big until the early 1970s,
and while many scientists have been looking for an A. bromata-type
dinosaur, they turned up only four known species. The latest discovery
in a list of over 70 dinosaur species contains the new name B. rosenii,
which was confirmed in 2000 by researchers in Australia.
