what about siesmosaurus

[htfamily]

@jr87001 seismosaurus was actually a species of diplodocus according to wikipedia

[Ornitholestes1]

@TheMaskwa pleased to meet you too :)

No, I´m not a scientist, but I want to study paleontology when I have finished school.

[TheMaskwa]

@Ornitholestes1 absolutely! its what i have been saying:) and if you are actually doing extrapolations of that kind( are you a scientist?), then pleased to meet you:) im just an amateur and i like a dabbling in this field. natural history is a passion...

@TheMaskwa I have even read weight estimates of 200t (which most scientists currently state to be inacurrate). I personally don´t think that they are, because I´ve extropolated it´s weight based on the estimate of 100t for argentinosaurus and came to a result of 250t (which probably is too much, but then 200t seems likely to be accurate).

So I believe that the largest animal ever was Bruhatkayosaurus.

@jattyization Seismosaurus is in fact a species of Diplodocus, D. hallorum, which is, of course, longer than the other diplodocus-species (D. longus, D. carnegiei and D. hayi )

@shreeyadz870 actually the largest blue whales weigh 200 to 210 tons but on average weigh 120 tons. ampicoelias was longer but was lighter than the blue whale and so was bruhathkayosaurus who weighrd 120 to 175 tons and averaged 139 tons.

[forksnipe315]

Sorry bro but Amphicoelias was the longest not the heaviest amphicoelias weighed 122 to 135 tons Bruhathkayosaurus was the heaviest and averaged 139 tons

[shreeyadz870]

@TheMaskwa i agree with you, and it irrates me that people say blue whale is the biggest animal ever thanks to bbc (dont get me wrong i like bbc, just not that sentence). The blue whale is 80-95 ft and almost 150 tons, amphicoelias was like 150+ ft and weighed 135 tons, but bruhatkayosaurus was shorter and weighed more (120+, 175 tons). :D

[shreeyadz870]

@jattyization um no they arent :P look it up

[shreeyadz870]

@letalvoz ur wrong, amphicoelis was at least 35% larger, taller, and stronger than argetinosaurus, but most dinosaur documentaries say argentinosaurus because argentinosaurus is more famous, but amphicoelias is bigger

amphicoelias
