Paleontologists in Argentina have discovered the fossils of a 100-foot-long, mid-Cretaceous dinosaur, Chucarosaurus diripienda, which was likely a titanosaur.

The dinosaur's long neck allowed it to feed on leaves at the top of trees, while its long tail was an effective weapon against large carnivorous dinosaurs.
