Scientists in the south of France have discovered a two metre dinosaur bone, in what has been described as remarkable discovery.

According to reports in France, the 400kg thigh bone thought to be 140-million years old was found in the Angeac-Charente palaeontological site near Bordeaux.

The discovery has now led to experts believing that this bone could belong to a incomplete set of bones which are thought to belong to a sauropod.

The discovery has also seen the site’s owners giving archaeologists the go-ahead to excavate in another 4,000 square metres of land in the hope of making a further discovery.
