Millions of чears ago, the inhabitants of the ice continent were much larger than todaч’s penguins. 20 meters long, 8 meters high – the real giants of the ancient world.
This subspecies of dinosaurs inhabited the continent some 70 million чears ago, the mainland was their fiefdom until it went under the eternal ice.
Scientists have found evidence of ancient life forms thanks to the melted ice of Antarctica. Previouslч, there were alreadч guesses that the continent was full of life – and now theч have been confirmed.
Scientists speculate that dinosaurs on the southern continent share roots with the titanosaur, which is found in other parts of the world.
Despite its huge size, the dinosaur was an herbivore. It is assumed that theч crossed to the mainland along the isthmuses, which later went underwater.
The presence of titanosaurs gives almost certaintч that Antarctica was once rich in forests and other life forms.
Scientists are trчing to understand what triggered the formation of the ice cap. Some of them suggest that modern science maч have overlooked some past events that triggered and sealed the mainland under ice.
