The longest dinosaur was Argentinosaurus, which measured over 40 metres, was the heaviest too. At 77 tonnes, it was the equivalent to 17 African Elephants. But, today, let us know more about these racers. Preserved footprints called a trackway can be used to find a rough estimate of how fast that particular animal was travelling at that moment. This method uses simple equations based on the distance between footfalls and the size of the feet.
The speediest dinosaurs were the ostrich mimic ornithomimids, such as Dromiceiomimus, which could probably run at speeds of up to 60 kms per hour. Find the others as your arrange them in order of who was fastest.
