In fact, the earth was once full of behemoth and terrifying killers. Here are the seven most famous and deadly dinosaurs. Let’s take a look at what they have!
1. Tyrannosaurus Rex
king of dinosaurs
Tyrannosaurus rex, Tyrannosaurus Rex, is the largest of the tyrannosaurids. The body length is about 11.5-14.7 meters. The average hip height is about 4 meters. The highest hip height can reach about 5.2 meters, and the highest head height is nearly 6 meters. The average weight is about 9 tons (the ecological average is about 7.6 tons), the heaviest is 14.85 tons, and the maximum head length is about 1.55 meters. The bite force is generally 90,000 to 120,000 Newtons, and the maximum at the end of the mouth is about 200,000 Newtons. It is also the strongest carnivorous dinosaur.
2. Majunlong
Madagascar lizard
Majungasaurus, also translated as Majungasaurus, means "lizard of Madagascar". It is a genus of the theropod Abelisauridae that lived in Madagascar at the end of the Cretaceous period, about 70 million years ago to 65 million years ago. . There is currently only one confirmed species, M. crenatissimus. Recently, the largest individual of Majungasaurus was found to be 10-11 meters long and 4-5 tons. Research data shows that Majungasaurus not only ate its own species that relied on picking plants for food, but sometimes also ate members of its own family.
3. Eocarcharia dinops
The second largest terrestrial carnivore on Earth
"Eocarcharia dinops" has a huge brow bone that almost covers its eyes, making it look very fierce and terrifying. When fighting for a mate, their huge brow ridges serve as a powerful "battering ram". This dinosaur is a type of carcharodontosaurus and is the most powerful carnivore in the southern continent. "Eocarcharia dinops" is likely the ancestor of the tyrannosaurus that lived in the late Cretaceous period. Tyrannosaurus is a carnivorous dinosaur that lived in the late Cretaceous period. It is the second largest terrestrial carnivore on earth.
4. Knopfler's Dragon
About the same size as a German Shepherd
Knopfler's dragon is about the same size as a German shepherd. They lived in the southern part of the supercontinent Gondwana at the end of the Cretaceous period 65 to 70 million years ago. Scientists believe they were dominated by fish, lizards and other animals. The first part of this dinosaur's English scientific name means "evil lizard", and the second part is named after a singer, Dire Straits, and guitarist Mark Knopfler. ).
5. Rose Mapron
earth lizard
Mapusaurus (genus name: Mapusaurus) means "earth lizard" and is a giant carnivorous dinosaur that lived in Argentina during the Late Cretaceous. Maposaurus is very similar to their close relative Giganotosaurus, but is larger than Giganotosaurus. It is one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs, only smaller than Tyrannosaurus rex, Tanzanian barbarian, and Spinosaurus aegypti. Their longest length reaches 14.5 meters long, maximum weight 13 tons.
6. Casting the Scythe Dragon
omnivorous dinosaur
Therizinosaurus (scientific name Falcarius) is a genus of therizinosaur superfamily dinosaur discovered in eastern Utah, USA, in 2005. Its scientific name is Latin for "scythe" and is used to describe its bulky clawed hands. Together with the discovery of Beipiaoosaurus from the Lower Cretaceous in China, the relationship between therizinosaur superfamily among theropods can be clarified.
7. Hadrosaurus
A member of the Ornithopod family of herbivorous dinosaurs from the late Cretaceous period
Hadrosaurs lived in the late Cretaceous period 100 million years ago, which was the peak period of dinosaur development, so they were numerous, accounting for about 75% of the plant-eating dinosaurs. They are a type of larger ornithischian dinosaur. Currently (2008) the largest species found exceeds 21 meters in length. The snout of the hadrosaur was named after the extension and lateral expansion of the premaxillary and predentary bones, forming a broad duckbill-shaped snout.
