Giant 25 Foot Wingspan Teratorn Discovered in Argentina
National Geographic announced the find of massive teratorn bones near 100 miles west of Buenos Aires. The bird measured 11 feet long, weighed 160 to 170 pounds, and could stand 6 feet tall. Researchers say it likely flew by gliding, similar to condors, and was the largest known flying bird.
