Hi, I'm Haley with your Newsround update.

:00:00.:00:00.

Can you imagine where these were found?

:00:00.:00:18.

But first, dozens of migrants trying to reach the UK are taking big risks

:00:19.:00:22.

by jumping into cars, lorries and on ferries at the port.

:00:23.:00:26.

Extra security has been brought in and drivers are being given help

:00:27.:00:29.

on how to check their cars so they don't accidentally bring

:00:30.:00:32.

in migrants, who have secretly got inside or on top of their vehicles.

:00:33.:00:37.

Services are back up and running here, they have been heading into

:00:38.:00:50.

the English Channel, all morning, that there is. We took a short walk

:00:51.:00:54.

from this location and you will notice in the distance, that is

:00:55.:00:58.

where all the lorries that have checked through security are parked.

:00:59.:01:02.

That is where the migrants want to get to because at the security, they

:01:03.:01:07.

had onto the ferry and into the English Channel. It was just Before

:01:08.:01:12.

Sunrise here and we saw dozens of migrants strolling along the

:01:13.:01:16.

streets, some of them scaling fences about double the size of the fences

:01:17.:01:22.

here, many with barbed wire. There is a sense of desperation. It feels

:01:23.:01:26.

like many more will be expected throughout the day, a desperation to

:01:27.:01:31.

head to the UK but what they say is a better life. Authorities here say

:01:32.:01:35.

they are at breaking point and need more help from the British

:01:36.:01:36.

government. Calling all seal watchers - keep a

:01:37.:01:38.

look out for harbour and grey seals if you live in London There were 280

:01:39.:01:42.

more than last year living in the The Zoological Society wants to see

:01:43.:01:45.

how many are thriving in the water now because years ago,

:01:46.:01:51.

it used to be heavily polluted. The skies will be lighting up over

:01:52.:01:56.

Blackpool's North Pier later as one of the country's most popular

:01:57.:01:59.

tourist resorts plays host to Experts from all over

:02:00.:02:01.

the world will be putting on spectacular displays for three

:02:02.:02:06.

days, starting tonight with Sweden. A new sensory garden for children

:02:07.:02:11.

has opened in Liverpool. Many pupils at Knotty Ash school

:02:12.:02:15.

are deaf and can't hear. There are special plants, herbs

:02:16.:02:18.

and a vegetable garden that children It is really good compared to what

:02:19.:02:35.

it used to be. We have a new sitting area over there. It is really good.

:02:36.:02:38.

Now could this be the biggest dinosaur to walk on earth?

:02:39.:02:40.

Its skeleton was found in Patagonia in South America.

:02:41.:02:43.

It was almost complete, which is very rare.

:02:44.:02:44.

The bones are from what's called a dreadnoughtus.

:02:45.:02:47.

Scientists are now looking closely at the bones

:02:48.:02:49.

so they can find out more about how it lived and what it ate.

:02:50.:02:54.

It was bigger than seven T-Rexs, weighed more than 13 elephants

:02:55.:02:58.

and had thigh bones as big as a grown man.

:02:59.:03:02.

This dinosaur is part of a bigger family called titanasours,

:03:03.:03:10.

because they were so big, and lived 77 million years ago.

:03:11.:03:14.

Not a lot is known about them but the discovery

:03:15.:03:20.

of this almost-complete skeleton is really helping to shed more light

:03:21.:03:22.

Dreadnoughtus gives us a chance to try and incorporate this new data

:03:23.:03:29.

into understanding the way they walked

:03:30.:03:32.

and the way they held their tail and their body proportions

:03:33.:03:35.

and the relative power of their limbs and their tail.

:03:36.:03:40.

It took four years to uncover the bones and now they are being

:03:41.:03:43.

studied in the lab to find out more about the super-massive creature.

:03:44.:03:48.

Scientists have named it dreadnoughtus

:03:49.:03:50.

Although it was not a meat eater, a dinosaur of this size would have

:03:51.:03:55.

Plus it had a long, powerful, tail which is could use to defend itself.

:03:56.:04:01.

At an estimated 65 tons, this dino has set a new record for the biggest

:04:02.:04:05.

animal to walk the Earth, previously the largest known dinosaur weighed

:04:06.:04:12.

And that's not all, the bones of this animal have showed it

:04:13.:04:21.

And that's not all, the bones of this animal have shown it

:04:22.:04:24.

wasn't fully grown, so it's likely that its parents were even bigger.

:04:25.:04:28.

Now, dogs often eat all sorts, but vets in the US found something

:04:29.:04:31.

They X-rayed the massive Great Dane, operated,

:04:32.:04:36.

and found 43 and a half socks in his stomach.

:04:37.:04:39.

His owners knew he liked chewing them but didn't know

:04:40.:04:41.

The dog's now won a prize for its strange eating habits.

:04:42.:04:46.

Hope the owners keep their socks in the drawer now.

:04:47.:04:49.

And on the Newsround website, you can watch the amazing spitting fish

:04:50.:04:52.

and there are also lots of other stories.

:04:53.:04:56.

That's all from me, Newsround's back later afternoon.
