How long is a giganotosaurus carolinii?
A 2021 modeling study uses a 13-meter reconstructed length for Giganotosaurus carolinii specimen MUCPv-CH-1. This comparison keeps that specific estimate attached.

A little more perspective
The Journal of Iberian Geology study scales MUCPv-CH-1 to a published 13-meter estimate. It also evaluates the same specimen using the earlier 12.5-meter reconstruction. This scene selects the former without averaging the two or treating either as an exact living-animal measurement.
The full side view retains the elongated skull, small three-fingered hands and long balancing tail. Body depth and surface detail are interpretive. A longer reconstructed animal is not necessarily a heavier one, and this length comparison does not assign a body mass.
