    Yes, indeed. I read that there was bone scarring on the skull that indicated decades of crude cosmetic surgery.

    This dinosaur was found recently in La Rioja and is said to be around 230 million years old. Incredible!

    How wonderful! The preservation for 230 million years is really hard to fathom.

    Very cool.
    Maybe the thread should renamed? The places I have visited in La Rioja are beautifully arid, though quite far from Patagonia.

    Changed the title of the thread from “Huge dinosaur found in Patagonia” to “Huge dinosaurs found in Argentina”.
