It has been named Dreadnoughtus. Dreadnoughtus was discovered by Kenneth Lacovara, PhD, of Drexel University. Because of its huge size and evidence that the long tail was used as a weapon, it was named after the massive British dreadnought battleships. Scientists think Dreadnoughtus was the largest beast ever to walk on planet earth. Dreadnoughtus would tower over an elephant and even a T-Rex!
