@Spino I understand that, just didn't want this topic to get closed. 

Anyway, as I said, my opinion on this is that it's like a coyote trying to get an armadillo. It might, but it's generally not worth the effort. So I say that neither wins. It is a draw.

SP, please, just please work on your spelling and grammer, it shouldnt take me 30 seconds to figure out one statement.

You are right SF, i wasnt the one to bring it up though, just pointing that out.

And Mr happy I have steppedon one and it hurt. But if you are wearing a Aho and are a large Pearson n and want not crush the Lego it will be crushed.

Same here, sorry, it was an example. Sorry again, forget that happened. 

WAIT! Cease this spino nonsense immediately. This is rex vs anky. Do you see a spino in there? NO. Now stop.

Well you already know my opinion on the deal, so ill just leve it at that.

That is true. I think we can all agree that, when fish were plentiful, it ate fish. Any other time, perhaps scavenging and hunting some Hadrosaurs. The young, old, weak and sick, like any predator would go for. 

Stop calling me S P guys just saucy raptor or rex or RR

Well we do argue about Spino's diet about as much as Rex vs Spino, but that also.

@ spino rex, I get bored of them.

and if the size chart is accurate I don't see why rex would win with Ease. It is adaptted to taking armored prey. The worst that could happen to rex is a cracked shin.

And if rex tried to flip it it would recieve side-spikes to the face... Honestly, despite anky's small size, it was nearly impossble for a rex to kill it. If it laid flat on the ground, a rex would be hard pressed to flip it, and like spino said, Ankylosaurus was a lego. You do not step on it. So... That leaves us with one hungry rex vs. one irritated ankylosaurus.

Another way to look at this is like an armadillo and a coyote. It'll take a lot of luck for the coyote to win, and it's better off looking elsewhere for food.

SP, have you ever stepped on a LEGO? No, they do not get crushed. They cause the most unbearable pain you'll ever feel. 

Why do you change your name so  much? Youve only been here almost a month and youve already made 3 names, and Raptorexx is already taken by another.

Which is why I said that for the most part, they'd ignore each other. 

It's the "what if" factor that people like to discuss. Rex and Spino for example, it's always people arguing about if they actually fought. What they don't argue about is the difference in diets that would allow them to just ignore each other. It's the "what if they fought?" that people like to talk about, not the "why would they fight?" bit. 

As Mr. H said, it depends on the situation. 2 Tyrannosaurus vs. 1 Ankylosaurus, the Tyrannosaurus wins. 2 Ankylosaurus vs. 1 Tyrannosaurus, the the Ankylosaurus wins 1 Ankylosaurus vs. 1 Tyrannosaurus, it could go either way, but Ankylosaurus would probably win. However, they would most likely ignore each other.

@Ya and stepping on a Lego would crush it.

and please call me raptor or rex or something.

That would be like biting on a hardwood tree with spikes, i doubt it would ever chance that unless its hallucinating from the lack of food.

S-P, stepping on an Ankylosaurus would be as much logic as stepping on a lego.

For the most part, they'd just ignore each other. Anky was a tank, but at the same time, too small to be worth the effort. If they did end up fighting, it is possible for Rex to have been able to bite through Anky. Rex's bite force has been estimated at 3-9 tons PSI. That's the equivelent to about 6 000 to 18 000 pounds PSI. Now, some may say Rex had a bite force topping at 7 tons. That's still 14 000 pounds PSI.

To give you an idea on that, a .50 BMG round produces about 2000 foot pounds of energy. That's 2000 pounds of force over a square foot. That's enough to rip a hole in an engine block. So, upwards of 10 000 pounds of force over a square inch would probably do the job. 

The carnivores definately did, with creatures like:

Eoraptor

Coelophysis

Herrerasaurus

Gojirasaurus

and Tawa

Well, everyone else has said pretty much everything that needs to be said. I think the Triassic was dominated by Carnivores because the predators were still small enough to survive off rodents, and there were still various other non dinosaur creatures that were still around. 

But rex is a lot bigger. So it could step on or flip over anky.

Grizzly Creek or Grizzly Valley, its just somewhere down in Mexico.

I haven heard of Tawa Hallae till a few years ago, it was found in 2006 and found somewhere with the word Grizzly in it.

Well, there's alsso Tawa hallae, and Gojirasaurus quayi...

Well crap, well all i can think of off the top of my head that are Carnivores have already been listed.

no, only dinos.

Compsagnathus was early as well, also Postasuchus, which wasnt a dinosaur, but this counts for any carnivore at the time right?

Good chapter

In normal situations and probably most, id say Anky close to evertime, a Rex would just have to get lucky enough to flip it over without getting nailed by the tail, or even getting stabbed by its side spikes. So either way, if Rex kills it or not, its in for some injury.

I'd say 50 50. While anky was small and rex was specialized at taking down heavily armoured prey. Ankysaurus armor I'd say would be almost indestructible I doubt a rex could bite through the armor. To be honest I'd say they stayed away from each other.

Nice! 

Yeah, the first dinosaurs that we know of are Eoraptor, Herrasaurus and Ceolophysis 

Thanks. 

Yes the carnivores came first, but some would argue that the herbivores did more to cement the dinosaurs as the dominant species. 

Nor does team raptor.

Small carnivorous dinosaurs such as Eoraptor lunensis and Herrerasaurus ischigualastensis and later the various known species of Coelophysis were among the first dinosaurs to roam the Earth. Shortly after those, herbivorous prosauropods such as Plateosaurus engelhardti and Panphagia protos started to pop up.

Dont worry, Dilo's dont care for the plebian squabbles of the other teams.

                       Sarcasm people, its called sarcasm

Welcome to the forum. I see that everyone else has already told you but I'll say it again. 

DO NOT FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS GOOD AND PLEASANT BRING UP REX VS. SPINO

Now that that's out of the way, I'm Silver_Falcon, but you can call me Silver, or SF. I hope you enjoy the forums.
