Dustin, I am not sure how they measure dinosaurs. I know when they measure horses they measure to the tallest point on their back. That is something we would need to research to know.

“We used to think that a fully grown Alamosaurus measured around 60 feet long and weighed about 30 tons,” Wow that is so so so so so cool and amazing. (that is alot of weight though)

"But based on the size of the bones recently discovered, Fowler and his colleagues learned that Alamosaurus could’ve been as large as South American sauropods like Argentinosaurus—the largest dinosaur known—which weighed in at about 140,000 pounds and was nearly 130 feet long." Wow again I had no idea that there was such a huge dino that big. (this is some cool stuff and that is a big dino). But if I ever saw that in a zoo that would be a big dino to see and my little cusion would run because he hates big things like that but the dino is huge.
