Tyrannosaurus Rex : Biggest Dinosaur ?

Posted By Zoe Delphy On December 8, 2007

 

For a long time it was believed that the T-Rex was the largest carnivorous dinosaur of them all but that was before the Giganotosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus were discovered.

Ok so he wasn’t the biggest of the meat eaters but he was still the largest member of the Tyrannosaurid family and of course recognised as one of the fiercest land predators ever to exist. 

At over 20 feet tall, 40 feet long and weighing up to 8 tonnes one can only imagine the fear that the roar of a T-Rex would place in the hearts of its enemies.

In a single week this massive flesh eater was known to consume its equivalent weight in meat. Try finding up to 8 tonnes of meat at your local super market, not an easy task but thats exactly how much this killer consumed each and every week.

    Bloody hell thats a lot of meat, but who was the biggest dinosaur ? You mentioned meat eating dinosaurs ?

    There is also the Spinosaurus which was several feet taller and longer.

    It is not of the Tyrannosaurid family, but it was a carnivore like the T-rex.

    dinasaurs are a myth and a fantasy.there have never been such creatures.just like dragons
    there r imaginary but the elite evolutionists who are consipiaracy theorists have successifully
    imparted their fact as truth to mantain the manufactured consiousness of many.
