00:02Mga kapuso, napangiti ang mga taga Land of Smiles o yung mga taga Thailand
00:07sa isang bagong dinosaur species na nadeskubri sa kanilang bansa
00:12na siya raw pinakamalaki ngayon sa Southeast Asia.
00:15Anong dinosaur ba ito?
00:17Kuya Kim, ano na?
00:21Sa haba nitong 1.78 meters,
00:25ang numerus o front leg bone na ito,
00:26singtangkad ng researcher at PhD student mula University College London
00:30na si Titiwut Seta Panic Sakul.
00:33Ang butong ito, isa lamang sa mga butong nahukay sa Thailand,
00:36sampung taon na nakakaraan.
00:37They had found it on the side of a pond in 2016 by local villagers.
00:42They immediately notified the Department of Mineral Resources in Thailand
00:46who came down, they began excavation immediately once they realized it was dinosaur bones
00:51and excavation continued until 2020.
00:54At mabusising pinag-aralan ng grupo ni na Titiwut nito mga nakalipas na taon.
00:58Moving the specimens is very difficult.
01:01Most of the specimens require at least 4 people to lift and move around.
01:05One of the ways we get around that is by using a 3D surface scanner to scan the specimens.
01:10At kamakailan lamang, napag-alaman nila ng naturang buto
01:14mula pala sa isang bagong species ng napakalaking dinosaur.
01:17Ang bagong tuklas na dinosaur, tinawag nilang Nagatitan Chayapumensis.
01:21Hangus sa lugar kung saan naman ito nahukay.
01:24Ang probinsya ng Chayapumensis na buhay daw 120 hanggang 100 million years na nakakaraan.
01:32Kabilang naman ito sa pamilya ng mga sauropods o mga plant-eating dinosaur na may mga habang deeg.
01:36More specifically, it belongs to a group of sauropods called the Sampho spondylin.
01:43They're known for a couple different key features,
01:47one of which being their highly pneumatized skeleton.
01:50So their skeleton actually has been modified to contain a lot of air sacs
01:55so that they lighten the mass of their skeleton.
01:59Ayon sa ginawang analisis ng grupo ni na Titiwut,
02:02ang Nagatitan Chayapumensis tinatayang nasa 27 tons ang bigat.
02:05Kasing bigat ng siyam na adult Asian elephants.
02:08Nasa 27 meters naman ang haba nito o singhaba ng isang blue whale.
02:12The most significant thing I think for a lot of people is its size.
02:17Nagatitan is the biggest Southeast Asian sauropod that we know of.
02:21Kaya ito ngayon ang pinakamalaking dinosaur na nadiskubre
02:24hindi lamang sa Thailand kundi sa buong Southeast Asia.
02:27Ang pagkakadiskubre sa tinuturing ngayong The Last Titan of Thailand,
02:30malaking bagay para kinatitiwut.
02:32A new dinosaur doesn't come by very often.
02:35This is the 14th dinosaur to be named in Thailand.
02:39And it gives us a better idea of the environment of early Cretaceous Thailand.
02:46Laging tandaan, kiimportante ang may alam.
02:49Ito po si Kuya Kim, magsagot ko kayo 24 horas.
