Well working with sharks for a living we use the trance like state on a rare basis to safely tag or remove objects from the shark or to take measurements of them, also an Orca is not an whale its the largest of the dolphin species. Killer whale is a silly nickname given them for the very simple fact there is very little they can not hunt.

I think we have a few team raptor fans on this post haha, I like the ones in Lost World but I guess I feel that way as its the stronger film for me. Although as a kid of 5 years old when I watched the first film I was afraid to go in the kitchen alone for some time, so my dad tells me lol.

He's still on every so often on a weekly(ish) basis. I wish he would post more often. He is 17, so school, maybe saving up for or paying off a vehicle. That would probably happen when I'm 17, seeing as to how my little brother "won" the jeep, and the only other vehicle we have that I would actually drive is a 3 ton pick up truck that might get 8 mpg.

That's pretty cool. Especially because it's Canadain.

Does this really warrant its own discussion topic? Can't you just PM him or email him if you have that info?

That fossil is beautiful

I still have not seen any articles talking about Torvosaurus bite force estimates. If anyone finds one, let me know. I'd be happy to read it. Until then, I still think T-rex had the highest bite force and that seems to be the most commonly accepted theory.

Many dinosaurs have thin teeth. Allosaurs, raptors, carcharodontosaurs, ceratosaurs, and a few others all had thin teeth. Good fight. I was rooting for Ceratosaurus.

Awesome. Can't wait for the rest of the story.

Well, Rex Fan is back ;) I give Tyrannosaurus rex an average size estimate of 40-43 ft long and 7-8 tons. But a large, old adult, in my opinion, could get to 45-50 ft in total body length and weigh over 9-11 tons, maybe more depending on the muscle mass. As we all know, I put Giganotosaurus at 40-43 ft long and 6-7.5 tons on the average with a max size of 46 ft and 8-8.5 tons. Spinosaurus, in my opinion, averages 46-50 ft in length and 5-6 tons in weight with 56 ft in length and 7-7.5 tons as the max. All three are still deadly, gigantic predators and I would not want to run into any of them.

Thanks. There is another encounter with them in almost every Chapter after this one. If not an encounter, they are mentioned though.

Those two Tyrannosaurus' seem to be important. Wonder what they'll do. Good chapter. I'm liking this story.

It is pretty cool to have images to go with the story. Now I wish I could do better than drawing a lizard with sharp teeth and short front limbs.

Nice. I like the picture.

I agree that the larger species of dinosaurs would not survive, but that being said, I honestly think that many aquatic creatures from Prehistoric times could have survived. I mean, we have barely even explored the ocean. Who knows what is down there.

The Giga is a little more important than you may think. You'll find out eventually why.

Haha. thanks

Good chapter. Can't wait for the next.

Yes, you'll know why I cut off the Eleopteryx's eye later. Other than that, thanks.

good chapter and the picture resembles the gruesome part

Thank you bro. I like your story and I look forward for the next chapter. I think you have very good skills at drawing and writing stories. Many people should know it but they don't.

P.S. stevedinobrothers helped me a little bit on this one. (thanks)

Same here. But we all improve chapter by chapter, so... keep it up. ;)

Good chapter. Mostly some punctuation errors. Easier to follow though.

I don't get out much, that's part of it.

Mr happy i am really surprised! But ok. Avatar is amazing it set a new level for digital and special effects. Truly unbelievable effects. U should check them out! All them movies are quality

Great chapter. What Giganotosaurus in his or her right mind would attack a pair of T. rex.

Brrr... decapitated Giga... Good chapter by the way. ;)

I could see up to 45 feet personally.

I think too a 48 foot Tyrannosaurus is plausible.

Interesting theory. I think Rex Fan would agree with the 48 foot Rex idea. Hopefully he gets back from his vacation today or tomorrow and we find out.

I've never heard of any of these actors. I've never seen any of the movies/ T.V. shows listed above (except Terra Nova) for starters. I don't really pay attention to the credits either. It could be interesting to have them, but I'd prefer the originals return.

Oh... ok I know them by face, sorry, I just didn't know them by name. Then means that actor I liked in AVATAR was Steven Laing. Haha.

Hahah what !!! How !!! SMALL ACTORS ! Michelle rodriguez plays lotti in fast and furious !!! Shes in resident evil 1 and latest, S.W.A.T and more importantly LOST!! Steven laing ! Plays the bad army guy in AVATAR !! And was the lead character in TERRA NOVA. Josh holloway il let u off with cos iv only seen him in two things He gets killed off at the begging of mission impossible ghost protocol but is in all 6 seasons of LOST!! Sawyer ??? Also davidorf perfume model! The black dude in gladiator with russel crowe???? Also in blood diamond two amazing films !! Where have u guys been

I don't know who they are too. I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to little known actors!

The intelligence really wouldn't play much of a role. Allosaurs have cerebrums rivaling those of tyrannosaurs. Also, more advanced isn't an argument. By that logic a sperm whale could kill Livyatan.

1. I obviously disagree with your size estimates. Most reputable scientists think that the cartilage length is oversized. Yeah, the huge footprints are real and, if anything, caved in around the edges and are smaller than they would be in life. Ceratopsipes seems valid, albeit as an ichnotaxon. 2. That seems absolutely plausible. Troodon in Alaska seem to have filled a macrophagous niche, being larger than a Troodon further south. 3. That depends. If you take the porker rex that weighs 9+ t, it would be too fat and inflexible to move. However, normal Tyranno may be able to. Also @ Deltadromeus, actually most adults are 37-38 feet, with a few breaking 39. Sue is a tiny bit over 40 feet in axial skeleton length and would be only 39 feet without a hypothetical disk enlargement. She is 42 feet by high estimates. And just to point out something and be annoying, Zhuchengtyrannus is oversized. It was actually only Daspletosaurus sized and thus your theory is more plausible.

I don't know who or what these guys are. I'm going with Sam Neil.

First of all i said no comments ! Carry on the story for a bit of fun! Second it was a cameo role at the beggining as a bit of a constant so the new trilogy actually would make any sense of there being one in the first place! Thirdly new characters can be introduced
