MemberCompsognathusAug-23-2014 8:26 PMokay, if you say so.
Basing off of suchomimus(11 meters, 3 tons), which had a skull length of roughly 1.2 meters(4.2 feet) we can get a pretty accurate size of spinosaurus Aegyptiacus, who had a skul lroughly 1.5 meters in length
Spinosaurs show a 1:9/ 1:10 skull/ body length ratio.
4.9 x 9 yields ~ 44.1 feet TBL
4.9 x 10 yields 49 feet TBL
We don't have a femur for spinosaurus, so we can't really get a weight off of it that way.
Assuming it had approximately the same proportions of suchomimus tenerensis, isometrically scaling would provide a TBW of 8.765 tons.
Analysis completion: 44-50 feet in length, 7-9 tons in weight.

MemberCompsognathusAug-23-2014 8:44 PMwho knows, but i do know Spinosaurus was a sizeable animal and the largest of its family group at around 50-55 feet in length, 8-11 tons in weight.
Dromaeosaurs were amongst the most sophisticated species of dinosaurs that ever roamed our little blue planet, and the smaller ones were almost definetly able to hunt in packs in order to take down prey much larger then themselves, smart in their own right

This is just static of birds talking.
