Like other titanosaurs, these herbivores likely had armor on their backs.

The surrounding forest makes perfect cover for a pack of Australovenators. The group consists of an alpha male and female and two unrelated subordinates, also a male and female. The rush into the clearing. They are so fast, the sauropod has no time to react. The predators leap on his back and flanks. Using their claws and teeth, they inflict serious injuries. The herbivore's back is protected by his armor, but his sides are not. Time after time, the Austras attack the sauropod, slashing and biting. Bleeding heavily, the Diamantinasaurus bellows for help. His calls will go unanswered. The sauropod shakes in an effort to rid himself of his tormentors. The alpha male is thrown off and knocked unconscious. The other three hold on though. The alpha female slashes the sauropod's flank with her claws while the other two members bite and claw his shoulder and hip. The Diamantinasaurus looks around frantically, trying to find something he can use to his advantage. Then he sees it. A massive boulder only a few yards away. He makes his way over to it. The predators hold fast. He lines up the side of his body with the rock. The Austras are so engrossed in their attack, they fail to realize what's happening. The titanosaur suddenly slams his body against the boulder, crushing the two subordinates between it and his own body. The dead female falls off, but the dead male does not. His hand claws are stuck inside the sauropod's flank. The herbivore shakes again and dislodges the dead predator's claws. The alpha female also falls off. The alpha male finally gets up and attacks. He leaps onto the back of the titanosaur and slashes with his claws. The female comes up with a plan. She climbs up the boulder and gets ready to jump. At the right moment, she leaps off and sails through the air, right in front of the face of the sauropod. It looks like she missed, but she was not planning on landing on the Diamantinasaurus. She strikes out with her hand claws. The biggest claw hits home, severing the jugular. The life-blood of the titanosaur begins to pour out onto the ground. The alphas back off and watch as their prey falls to the ground. They won't need to hunt again for weeks. Winner- Australovenator [img]http://www.australiangeographic.com.au/assets/images/article/journal/7769/australovenator-illo.jpg[/img] Faster, smarter, and better equipped, Australovenator was more than a match for Diamantinosaurus, even an adult. They don't call him the southern hunter for nothing. Next time on Clash of Contemporaries Pyroraptor. One of Europe's foremost carnivores. Larger than Velociraptor and just as smart, Pyroraptor was one of the most formidable predators in all of earth's history. But even they had to compete with other predators for food. And sometimes, that meant fighting a predator over twice their size. Prepare, as Pyroraptor and Tarascosaurus engage in a colossal fight... to the death! Only on Clash of Contemporaries!
