At 15,000-pound (6,800-kilogram) the prehistoric titan would have rivaled the African elephant-size Triceratops, which weighed more than 11,000 pounds (5,000 kilograms), according to a new analysis of a partial skeleton.

It's amazing to think that if the dinosaurs hadn't been eradicated, the human race probably wouldn't have evolved as it has.  All things have a purpose, eh?
