Size matters and these giant beasts have it where it counts...everywhere. Count down the top 10 Giant Beasts and then vote on your favorite.
No. 10 - Giant Rodent
NO.10 - 巨型鼠
Turns out the world's largest rodent is from Uruguay, not New York. In January of 2008 researchers uncovered the remains of the enormous creature and guessed that, back when it was alive, the rodent weighed about 1 ton.A few months later scientist revised their estimates and now say the big guy probably tipped the scales at about 770 lbs - still not the kind of thing you want to find crawling through your cupboards.
No.9- Liopleurodon Ferox
Liopleurodon ferox is another creature that may not be as big as originally thought. At first scientist believed the prehistoric sea creature averaged about 82 feet long, but eventually had to revise their estimates downward.
No. 08 - Giant Peccary
Though only about the size of a large dog, the giant peccary, a pig-like animal, is much, much bigger than its brothers and sisters. We don't need Charlotte and her web to tell us that the giant peccary, found in the Amazon jungle, is some pig

No. 08 - 巨型野猪
尽管这种类似家猪的野猪，其大小和一只狗相差无几，但是它的体型比其他品种野猪要的多。我们不需要夏洛特和她的网站告诉我们，这种盛产于亚马逊丛林巨型野猪也是猪的一种。

Yes, that's really its name. Giganotosaurus caroliniimakes T. Rex look like the kid picked last for the basketball team. A large Giganotosaurus weighed in at at about 6.2 tons and stood about 43.3 ft high. Don't go feeling bad, Giganto might have been big, but all of him wasn't enormous. His brain was the size of a banana.
No. 07 - 南方巨兽龙很好，这就是它的真实名字。卡洛琳南方巨兽龙让霸王看起来起来就像是篮球队中的小屁孩。一只南方巨龙兽体重高达6.2吨，站立起来就有43.3英尺。不要感到害怕，巨龙兽虽说很庞大，都很巨大。它的大脑犹如香蕉那么大。 |
No. 06 - Thirteen-Foot Tall Camel
Most everyone has heard the old saying "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." Religion aside, it would be doubly hard for this a 13-foot camel -- twice the size of a modern one -- to squeeze through anything. This big guy is around 100,000 years old and was found in Syria.
No. 06 - 十三英尺的大骆驼
很多人都听说这句古老的谚语“一只骆驼穿过针眼远比一位富人进入天堂容易得多”。除了宗教，似乎很难找到这样一只高达13英尺的骆驼——这可是现在的两倍大——让它穿过任何东西。这个大家伙出现在距今大约有10万年前，在叙利亚被发现。
No. 05 - Giant Sea Scorpion
Don't let the picture fool you. This giant sea scorpion, found in Germany in 2007, was probably over 8-feet high with a creepy 18-inch long claw. Don't worry, it's safe to go back in the water. It lived about 390 million years ago.
No. 04 - Giant Prehistoric Crocodile
Don't tell Toho Co, but Godzilla might have been from South America. The remains of Dakosaurus andiniensis, a prehistoric crocodile that scientists named Godzilla, after the Japanese creature, were found in South Amer

No. 04 - 史前巨型鳄鱼
不要告诉东宝公司，但是哥斯拉已经在南美洲被发现了。达克龙化石，也就是史前巨型鳄鱼被科学家定义为哥斯拉，于05年在南美发现。
译者注：以影视怪兽角色哥斯拉(Godzilla) 闻名的东宝公司(Toho Co)
No. 03 - Giant Dragonfly
Meganeura monyi , or giant dragonfly, had a wingspan of over 3 feet and flew over Europe roughly 300 million years ago. It's the largest flying insect species ever known to exist.
No. 03 - 巨型蜻蜓
蜻蜓目的巨脉或者说是巨型蜻蜓其翅膀展开超过3英尺，其足迹曾在3000万年前遍布欧洲。这可能是迄今为止知道最大的飞行昆虫了。
No. 02 - Demon Duck of Doom
Perhaps George Lucas was thinking about Bullockornis when he made Howard the Duck. Bullockornis, nicknamed the carnivorous "Demon Duck of Doom," stood over 10 feet tall and lived c.15 million years ago in Australia. Almost as scary as Howard.
No. 02 - 毁灭魔鸭
或许乔治·卢卡斯导演了“天降神兵”，他正在思考 Bullockornis 。 Bullockornis ，被称为肉食“毁灭魔鸭”，站起来有15英尺高，生活在史前1500万年前的澳大利亚。性情胆小。
After more than 2,000 years of stories and tons of fish tales, the first live giant squid was filmed off Japan's Ogasawara Islands in 2004.
Jules Verne was smiling from somewhere
No. 01 - 巨型乌贼
大约2000多年的历史传说，第一次活的巨型乌贼照片拍摄于小笠原群岛。儒勒·凡尔纳或许在某个地方窃喜呢。
