Scientists say that this species is one of the largest dinosaurs on Earth. It seems that this dinosaur lived in the Christian era. Australia was then part of Antarctica.

This dinosaur belongs to the genus Sauropod, which lived on plants. Cooper is a plant-living dinosaur. This is a very large dinosaur. Scientists say it may be the largest on Earth.

Researchers found evidence that his bones were about the length of a basketball court (25 to 30 meters long) and up to two stories high.
