6 ft long, 100 lbs
Despite their small size, Velociraptors were among the most dangerous dinosaurs. They had intelligence, killing claws, and speed. They also hunted in packs.
9. Ceratosaurus
23 ft long, 1.5-2 tons
Ceratosaurus was a pretty large carnivore. It hunted in pairs and trios. Ceratosaurus also had some of the largest teeth compared to body size of all the large predators, 6 inches long!
8. Carnotaurus
25 ft long, 2 tons
Carnotaurus was slightly larger than it's earlier cousin Ceratosaurus. Like Ceratosaurus, Carnotaurus had horns on it's head. However, these were not thin blades, but thick powerful spikes.
7. Daspletosaurus
33 ft long, 3.5 tons
Although not as large as Tyrannosaurus, Daspletosaurus was still a large, dangerous carnivore. Das' had 7 inch teeth and a top speed of 20 miles per hour. They also hunted in small packs.
6. Utahraptor
16 ft long, 800-1,000 lbs
Even though it was not as smart as later dromeosaurs, Utahraptor made up for this with it's size. It is the largest raptor found to date. It's killing claw was up to 10 inches long!
5. Spinosaurus
45-56 ft long, 4-6 tons
Spino was the longest carnivore ever to walk on land. Spinosaurus may have had somewhat weak jaws and teeth, but it had massive arms and claws. These were perfect for dispatching fish and small dinosaurs. They would have also been useful in tearing open carcasses it found.
4. Allosaurus
30-33 ft long, 2-3.5 tons
Allosaurus was the king of the Jurassic. Al had large teeth and big claws. It's hand claws were up to 6 inches long. It's likely that they also hunted in packs.
3. Carcharodontosaurus
36-40 ft long, 5-6 tons
Car rivaled Spino in weight and was somewhat more powerful. It had long, steak knife like teeth and had a top speed of 15-20 miles per hour.
2. Giganotosaurus
43-46 ft long, 7-8 tons
Giga and Car were very similar in body design, but Giga was somewhat larger and smarter. Giga likely hunted in packs to bring down large prey like titanosaurs. Giganotosaurus was the largest carnivore that ever lived in the southern hemisphere.
1. Tyrannosaurus rex
45-50 ft long, 7-9 tons
Tyrannosaurus was by far the deadliest dino of all time. It was huge, strong, fast, and intelligent. T-rex had a bite force of up to 9 tons per square inch and likely hunted in packs. Tyrannosaurus was the largest terrestrial carnivore that ever lived in the northern hemisphere, and quite possibly the world!
