A 150 million-year-old dinosaur has taken up residence at the Dubai Mall, and the public has been tasked with the job of naming it.

The surprise unveiling of the 24.4 metre long Diplodocus longus saw the jaws of hundreds of shoppers drop to the floor at Monday evening’s reveal.

The colossal exhibit has been noted as the rarest palaeontology find in history, with more than 90 per cent of its skeleton intact.

So what’s it going to be? Matilda, Penny, Candy…who knows, but let’s get naming.
