Man Finds Skeleton In His Backyard – Turns Out It's The Largest Dinosaur Ever Found in Europe (Video & Pictures)

Imagine waking up one fine day, only to realise that one of the most gigantic creatures to have walked the Earth once resided where you currently live — and we do not mean this metaphorically. In one such unprecedented turn of events, a man from Portugal’s Pombal, while carrying out some construction work in his backyard back in 2017, encountered fossilised bones of what looked like a humongous dinosaur!

So far, vital parts of the axial skeleton (such as bones of the ribs and vertebrae) have been retrieved from the site. Due to the preservation characteristics, the researchers suspect more elements of the skeleton to be present in the region. They will thus carry out further excavation campaigns in and around the area to assemble the exhilarating puzzle piece.
