"Behind me is the full-scale replica of Patagotitan mayorum, one of the world's largest dinosaurs. And in this exhibition, we're telling its story right from how it hatched from a tiny egg and grew into this 57-tonne giant."

15. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Barrett, Dinosaur Researcher:
"So Patagotitan really pushes what the limits of life on land might be. It's one of the very heaviest land animals we've ever discovered, weighing nearly 60 tons. And it's actually one of the most complete of these giant dinosaurs that's ever been discovered. So we've had hints of really large dinosaurs in the past, but often based on incomplete material. And it's not been clear what the overall animal's body looked like or what its overall shape was, which has made determining how heavy they were and what their biology was actually like was quite difficult. But in this case, what we had was enough material finally to be able to have a very good idea about what the entire animal looked like, which then has a number of knock-on consequences for understanding how it lived."

16. Various of entrance to exhibition
17. Various of 69 million year-old titanosaur egg found in India
18. Wide of display case
19. Close of Daspletosaurus lower jaw, a carnivorous dinosaur, 74-80 million years old
20. Various of teeth from Titanosaur, which were herbivores, 94-100 million years old
21. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Barrett, Dinosaur Researcher:
"So we know that Patagotitan was a herbivore and it would have probably been eating about 130 or more kilograms of food per day just to fuel that huge multi-ton body. We also know that it was an animal that grew fairly quickly. This is an animal that was going from an egg around the size of a large grapefruits to an adult in about 30 years. So it's putting on a huge amount of bone and muscle in that time and growing incredibly rapidly. We also know that those big animals are probably fairly impervious to the big predators that lived alongside them, but the smaller animals would have still been vulnerable to some of the rather large predatory dinosaurs it lives aside."

22. Various of fossil titanosaur femur, the first bone discovered from the Patagotitan mayorum in Argentina in 2010
23. SOUNDBITE (English) Sinead Marron, Exhibition Lead:
"The femur, or the thigh bone, is one of the first bones that they found. And it's one of the first signs that the scientists who made this discovery were onto something incredibly special, because alone this bone is 2.4 metres long and weighs, the fossil weighs about 500 kilos."
