Megalosaurid

When it comes to huge carnivores, there were no larger land animals than all the giant theropods we grew up with, and here is a list of my top 10 largest theropods. #10 Edmarka rex/Torvosaurus: One of the largest north american theropods, the largest specimen (CPS 1002) known from a scapula, is estimated at 11 m long, and probably upwards 3000-4000 kg #9 Suchomimus tenerensis: The largest specimen of this african spinosaurid (MNHN GDF 500) is estimated to measure 11.65 m (by Scott Hartman) and over 3816-4700 kg, some even claimed a weight of 5,200 kg was possible, the skull is 1.4 m long, and has over 90 non serrated,cone shaped teeth. #8

Hi everyone, it is nice to come back again with some results of my investigations, and I found something interesting: the Tyrannosaurus rex Sue was not an abnormally long T.rex, and some specimens seem to equal and surpass its length, this means that while Sue was deffinitely huge, it was perhaps not much larger than the average T.rex, and likely they were slightly longer T.rex specimens. I will begin citing a list of T.rexes with a similar length based on theropoda data base fossils: NMC 9950 Huxley rex: 11.33-12.1 m, based on a 1.284 m long femur, this specimen was likely similar proportioned to CMN 9380 or Stan due to the size of the femur

Estimates for length of dinosaurs are very uncertain, specially for a theropod called Spinosaurus. Drawing conclusions from fragmentary remains is so uncertain, that I decided to estimate by my own hand how large was the size of Spinosaurus based on Suchomimus tenerensis, and using the published skull estimates for Spinosaurus. Spinosaurus was possibly the longest theropod dinosaur ever found, and certainly the vertaebrae were huge, really huge. Spinosaurus has always been a subject of debate in size terms, and using the proportions of other Spinosaurids (Baryonyx, Irritator and Suchomimus) scientist Cristiano Dal Sasso estimated that Spinosa
