Mine is the perfect predator:

Velocityrannus Ceradon

(Velocityrannus=Swift Tyrant, Ceradon=Horned Tooth)

Late Jurassic - Early Cretaceous

North America

12 feet tall and 30 feet long

 Usually hunted in packs of 3-5 members, but some fossils were found alone.

Allosaurid

Bite force: 650 pounds per sq. inch

Had a long head with two long horns like a bull just above the eyes, had two teeth twice as long as the others near the middle of the head. Normal teeth were about 3 inches long. It also had a small horn at it's snout. It had a sickle claw like a Dromaeosaurid, but it's an Allosaurid. It had top speeds of 30 mph. Colors were tan, but it had a metallic gray patch around its eyes and snout. Its other parts of the head along with its underside were cream-colored.

One nearly complete skeleton, two partial skeletons, and one skeleton of a few vertabre and some teeth were found in the Morrision Formation in Colorado 2014 next to a partial skeleton of a Stegosaurus. A few miles away, some ribs, vertabre, and teeth were found.

Yeah, insulting somebody is not allowed genius!!!

Quote: also has bacteria

All vertebrates have bacteria in their mouths... And even if it was special to tyrannosaurus, it did not kill with infection

Quote: sences

Gee, really? NO! That's impossible!

Quote: roar

How is this going to be useful as a weapon?

Quote: acrobactic

Uh, no. Most definitely not

Quote: they can feel vibrations

It had nerves, we get it...

Quote: claws

Definitely not a weapon!

Quote: sharp teeth

Weren't really that sharp. They were actually quite dull and blunted to compensate for its powerful biting strength.

Quote: tail

Theropod tails were quite stiff and were only used as balance-beams. Theropods most definitely did not use their tails as weapons!

Quote: talons

Uh, no... Definitely not!

Using even max estimates, T-rex is twice as heavy as the next biggest, Acrocanthosaurus. A 12 ton T-rex vs a 6 ton Acrocanthosaurus for example.

Not at the moment.

Wow lets keep this up an a great chapter.

Okay, so Team Raptor. That I can do, just takes some time to fully code up. Any other suggestions?

It is called insulting somebody...

I agree.

Great fight.

team raptor would be a nice add on :)

Not sure, but looking forward to them.

i just noticed Rex outweighs all the other Theropods on the list by a good 3-4 tons..crazy stuff

i agree with this, but Rex probably wasn't all that  intelligient. my best guess is somewhere around a puppy, or maybe a parrot? Most dinosaurs probably weren't that smart, except dromeaosaurs maybe.

I'm rooting for Ceratosaurus 

the finale will be up in the next couple days, aiming for thursday! It's gonna be a three way fight: Nothronychus, Suchomimus and the winner of Ceratosaurus vs Sinraptor

That's fine. Looking forward to the finale. 

Nice job. I didn\'t see the ending coming. Also nice job taking out three competitors. When will the finale come?

that's right. I didn't want to kill it off this way, but it wouldn't have survived the finale

Good fight. The third competitor being Utahraptor, right?

you sir, can cool it. Every body is allowed to get heated about stuff. so chill. it was a debate. one that had it's share of heated words, but its over with. Take all the 'drastic measures' you want. doesn't change anything.

What the **** you ****ing **** ball of **** to all the people in this. This is just plain stupid, and I think I'm going to take drastic measures to stop this!!! So just **** off, all of you.

The lowest estimation (that is still somewhat accurate) is at 68.000N (6.8 tons) PSI and the highest estimation (the highest that still makes some sense) is at 235.000N (23.5 tons) PSI. I personally think that it was somewhere between 90.000N and 150.000N.

I hate to say this, but I actually agree with you.

And neither are you Godzillasaurus. One of the most immature things is to call someone else immature. Where's the respect (I guess you'd spell it "respekt" though)? Why do you even spell stuff like that? Seriously, what the point of spelling stuff like that? It's just plain stupid!

Nope, spinosaurus was actually heavier at around 12 tons by comparison to a bare maximum of 8 tons for tyrannosaurus.

Quote: Also Tyrannosaurus Rex had to take down preys like Triceratops and Ankylosaurus which is extremely hard. But even though Spinosaurus could take down prey much larger than it,it didnot have to since it could eat fishes like modern days grizzly bears

Spinosaurus was actually poorly adapted for killing animals much larger than itself. The ability for it to be an apex predator (this is rather quite debatable) comes from its immense size advantage over all if not most of the other predators in its ecosystem, not from its ability (or lack thereof) to kill large animals like paralititan. It was not designed for killing, but instead gripping to say the least. Most of its diet was made up of large fish such as onchopristis and moderately-sized mawsonia, simply because it was adapted to hunt such animals; much of its morphology suggests high aptitude for gripping as opposed to killing. This flows into the point that carcharodontosaurus was designed for killing animals like paralititan but would likely risk injury if it tried to kill the same kinds of creatures as spinosaurus by gripping. Let alone the fact that it was simply poorly designed for gripping in the first place.

Thus, spinosaurus did not "not need to kill larger animals than itself", but instead was simply poorly designed to do so and was instead well adapted for gripping large and powerful fish. Carcharodontosaurus was the direct opposite (gripping vs killing). Both animals were designed to hunt and kill different things in very different ways, simply to compensate for their respective niches.

And the idea that tyrannosaurus hunted in packs is merely a theory. The same thing goes for giganotosaurus, actually

Sounds accurate. I thought I heard the bite was 18 000 PSI. 

Quote: *sigh* we're going in circles. For gods sake, just stop. my paper actually had accurate stuff in it. What the author was doing when he wrote your paper....i just don't know. MY paper was actually accurate and factual. IT takes effort to read a bloody paper bro. Simply kick on the damn link.

That is possibly the most immature and biased statement that has ever been said on any dinosaur forum. Unless you have evidence that your source is "mor fact and nawt as incorect as mi sorce!", that is opinionated. They were both written by the same author, so you can't just claim that my source is weaker just because "yoo want too bee rite!". YOU, my friend, are making no sense right now.

You guys fail at talking about dinosaurs. You cannot have an entire subforum devoted to it and yet claim that everything is all an opinion. I have for my explained why my claims are not an "opinion" and make more sense than all of your "spino is a weakling that only ate sardines" hogwash

In my opinion,Tyrannosaurus Rex would win.Even though Spinosaurus had huge size but Tyrannosaurus Rex has greater bite force and weight.Also both of these dinosaurs have good sight.Tyrannosaurus Rex had good sense of smell too.But none of these two predators encountered each other since Tyrannosaurus Rex lived in North America and Spinosaurus lived in Africa.Just having big size doesnot make you strong.If they meet though,it would depend on who sees who first.Also Tyrannosaurus Rex had to take down preys like Triceratops and Ankylosaurus which is extremely hard.But even though Spinosaurus could take down prey much larger than it,it didnot have to since it could eat fishes like modern days grizzly bears which are often got rid of by wolves which are smaller than grizzly bears and hunt and live in packs.So, Tyrannosaurus Rex might have lived and hunted in packs of their family like Dad T-Rex,Mom T-Rex and their children which would join them after being adult/young.Male Lions are a great rival of each other.But male Lions also join forces,sharing mates and hunting together.So, it is possible that Tyrannosaurus Rex hunted in packs and some evidence of this is found.But still no evidence of Spinosaurus hunting in packs has been found.So, there is a 60% chance of Tyrannosaurus Rex winning and 40% chance of Spinosaurus winning in my opinion.

SPINO WILL MAKE A COME BACK to truely CRUSH an opponent you must raise their hope's high then take the victory away from them that is how you truely CRUSH an opponent.

These chapters are incredibly entertaining. Can't wait for the rest.

This is going to be amazing, i have no doubt in that.

a pink t-rex? the stuff of nightmares...have they done this with other feathered dinosaurs? like Archaopteryx?

@eliteraptor i think they're still working on it. But you can google ' lane the triceratops mummy' and some stuff will come up :)

regardless of this, it was still good! looking forward to future ones

He was talking about Carnotaurus and Carnosaurus not being real, not Majungasaurus.

ok will do and Majungasaurus was called Majungatholus until changed to Majungasaurus

This was also done with Sinosauropteryx. It was light orange with a white striped tail and white underside.

Please T.Rex, DON'T BE PINK.

I'm going with Carno, they were both about the same size, but Carno lived about 100 million years after Mega, which suggests that he was smarter.
