There are tons of animals, birds, insects and other creatures living on our planet, among which you can find literal giants. Some species are known for their notable sizes as they are, others simply beget especially big individuals sometimes. At the same time a lot of them turn out to be even larger in real life than you can imagine after reading Wikipedia articles.
