You're a supergenius mad scientist with practically infinite money and you've just finished researching gene editing and built a machine that can create any animal you want from an input of genes. You want to show off by creating the biggest land animal that can exist before the very laws of physics start taking it personally. The measuring stick will be some mix of volume/height/width/length rather than mass because otherwise you could cheat by just making it extremely dense or a giant flat disc and miss the point of the exercise, which is to create a big ass animal.Some rules:- It does not need to be evolutionarily viable. This means any factors that limited dinosaurs to sauropod sizes are irrelevant. The body plan/composition can be something that's more efficient but wouldn't evolve naturally, and it doesn't need to worry about finding food or getting to fuck. It's going to be cloned and have an infinite source of food in the lab/enclosure. Doesn't matter if it needs to spend 24 hours a day eating something with the caloric density of uranium. As long as it can stay alive until it hits adult size and a bit longer so people can buy overpriced tickets to stare at it, it's allowed.- It can't be cybernetically/surgically modified in any way. Everything about it must be contained in the genome. No replacing bones with some ultra-light ultra-strong bullshittium or replacing the heart/lungs with more efficient machines. But if you can code a way for it to biologically produce bullshittium for the bones in the genome, then it's allowed.- It needs to be able to move around in some way. Speed or method doesn't matter as long as it can change position over time without external input. Could be legs, organic wheels, levitation, whatever, as long as it's genetic. Also keep in mind it has to be able to move on land as per the definition of "land animal" so no sentient planets that move by farting.No your mom jokes please.
