Who said the country was boring, man check out what you can see out here. Through most of outback Queensland dinosaur skeletons and fossils have been discovered. Here in Muttaburra this guy was discovered in 1963. Can I just say though, I think he was too long in the ground and had some gas build up. I might not have been sitting in the right spot for this photo....and he only ate plants image if he ate beans!
This is a full scale replica and back 100 million years ago when he roamed the earth he would have stood 2 meters high and 12 meters long. He may have also had to join the biggest loser because he weighed a staggering 15 tonnes. (That would be 30,000 blocks of family sized chocolate - wow.)
Andy Roo's Fact Finds: Muttaburra has a population of 106 (2006 census). The name of the town is from an
Aboriginal word meaning "meeting of waters".
