Goliath Frog Weighing up to 7.2 pounds (3.3 kg) -- around the same size as a newborn baby -- the goliath frog (Conraua goliath) is the world’s largest frog. It can grow to the size of a typical house cat, reaching as much as 12-and-a-half inches (32 cm) long. 8. Griffinflies Some of the largest-known insects that ever existed were giant dragonfly-like predators called griffinflies from the extinct Meganeuropsis genus. They very much resembled modern-day dragonflies, but are only distantly related to them and were much bigger, with bodies measuring over a foot-and-a-half (45.7 cm) long and wingspans of up to two-and-a-half feet (75 cm) across. That’s Jumanji size right there! 7. Giant Huntsman Spider You’d probably agree that the idea of a spider the size of a dinner plate is utterly terrifying, but such a thing actually exists. Discovered in Laos in 2001, the giant huntsman spider (Heteropoda maxima) is the world’s largest spider by legspan, measuring up to a foot (30.5 cm) across. 6. Titanoboa South America’s tropical jungles were vastly different during prehistoric times than they are today. For one, everything was bigger, including plants and animals. Crocodiles exceeded 33 feet (10 meters) in length, seven-foot-long (2.1 meters) lungfish tripled the size of those today and turtles were the size of cars!! 5. Giant Otter While the wildlife in modern-day South America is nowhere near as large as it once was, the continent is still home to some impressively huge creatures. For example, the giant otter (Pteronura brasiliensis). 4. Sea Scorpion In 2007, scientists announced the discovery of Jaekelopterus rhenaniae, the largest sea scorpion and arthropod that ever existed. Measuring up to 8.2 feet (2.5 meters) long, it readily exceeded the size of a human. 3. Giant Oarfish As the world’s largest bony fish, the giant oarfish (Regalecus glesne) grows up to 56 feet (17 meters) long. Even though it’s so big, the species is rarely seen and scientists know very little about it. 2. Gargantuan Millipedes Some of the largest arthropods and insects ever to roam the planet came from the extinct Arthropleura genus of invertebrates. They are related to modern-day centipedes and millipedes, strongly resembling the latter. The biggest among them grew as much as six-and-a-half feet (2 meters) long and sometimes reached over a foot-and-a-half (45.7 cm) wide. 1. Supercroc In 1997, paleontologists working in Niger found the human-sized jawbone of a ‘supercroc’ (Sarcosuchus imperator), a giant relative of modern crocodiles and the largest known crocodilian that ever lived. #biggestanimals #biggestcreatures #giantcreatures #originsexplained
