In 2017, a Portuguese man began a garden renovation and found an 82-foot dinosaur that lived 150 million years ago

Construction work in Pombal, Portugal, unearthed a colossal dinosaur skeleton. This sauropod, possibly Europe’s largest, measured 82 feet long and 39 feet high. The rib cage remained in its original position, suggesting a unique fossilization. This discovery highlights Portugal’s rich prehistoric past and the potential for ancient wonders beneath ordinary backyards.
