Argentinosaurus is the largest dinosaur and the largest land animal ever to walk the Earth. Despite its huge size, Argentinosaurus laid eggs about the size of a rugby ball, so its young had a lot of growing to do to reach the 115 foot adult size which would probably have taken tens of years. This would lead to a conclusion of vegetation being srtipped away constantly by the vulnerable young Argentinosaurus. For the most part, the giant sauropods perished at the end of the Jurassic, but in South America and Africa, giants like Argentinosaurus and its relatives lived on, they were the most glorious land Animal, and would destroy everything in its path if it were alive today.[102-89]
