New Species of Dinosaur Bigger Than T-REX

Carcharodontosaurus

New discovery in the world of dinosaur. Ten years ago, Dr Paul Sereno discovered bones and teeth of an unknown dino, in a site in Niger. He passed the fossils to a postgraduate student of Bristol University, Steve Brusatte. The dinosaur was named Carcharodontosaurus. He was 46 feet tall and weight 7 tons, bigger than his cousin T-Rex, he had 70 teeth the size of a banana. The reptile lived 95 million years ago in Sahara, at that time covered with green vegetation.Next to the creature were found fossils of two other dinosaurs: Spinosaurus and Rugopos, which brings in the possibility of a terrifying battle that eventually caused the decease of the predators.
