FUN FACTS
Largest Carnivorous Dinosaur: Spinosaurus is believed to be the largest carnivorous dinosaur, even bigger than the Tyrannosaurus rex, measuring up to 59 feet in length.
Rare: The Spinosaurus is among the rarest of the meat-eating theropod dinosaurs from the Cretaceous period.
Distinctive Sail: It had a unique sail on its back, formed by elongated spines that could reach over 6 feet tall. The function of this sail is still debated, but theories include temperature regulation and display.
Semi-Aquatic Lifestyle: Spinosaurus is thought to have been semi-aquatic, spending a lot of time in water, unlike most other large theropods. It had adaptations for swimming, such as dense bones and paddle-like feet.
Nile Crocodile-like Snout: Spinosaurus had a long, narrow snout similar to that of modern crocodiles, ideal for catching fish.
Unique Hunting Style: Unlike other large theropods that relied on strength and speed, Spinosaurus likely ambushed its prey in the water.
Dual Habitat: Its tail was adapted for swimming and evidence suggests Spinosaurus could walk on land and swim in water, making it one of the few known semi-aquatic dinosaurs.
Featured in Pop Culture: Spinosaurus gained fame from its appearance in “Jurassic Park III,” where it was portrayed as a formidable predator.
