Deinosuchus didn’t live with Tyrannosaurus, nor would it prey on such an animal, large prehistoric crocodilians really are overestimated. Deinosuchus was a predator, and predators kill to survive, which means it would be hunting easy meals, which certainly doesn’t include dinosaur the same size as it that also has very good chances of escaping or fighting back and killing it. That’s like depicting a modern American alligator hunting a black bear on land, it honestly just seems like a way to get people interested in underrated animals.

@@ericknorskr8568 that isn't how bite power estimation works. Shorter and more robust snouts can also produce immense bite forces. Bite forces in crocodilians are typically estimated via potential muscle attachment points on the jaw, such as the retroarticular process at the back of the lower jaw or the space around the base of the jaws, not the length of the snout itself. Deinosuchus skull also yields even more evidence of a powerful bite, due to both the incredibly tough teeth and the immensely robust skull. Also, are we looking at the same animal here? A Deinosuchus jaw is far from short, it's proportionately much longer than any other alligatorid.

Not with this thing around. While they lived millions of years a part, the spino bite force was made for fish, soft and quick. The rest of the body was designed to support a swimmer more than a runner.

Astorgosuchus would be no. 3 . Also Purussaurus is a Caiman so it would be the undisputed king of caimans

Likewise, the largest predator today that can walk on land is a salt water crocodile, which can get larger than polar bear. With that said, crocs are subaquatic so it's a bit of an unfair comparison.

Well, changing the wording to 'that can come onto land' makes it something else.

@@Dr.Ian-Plect true, but on land a crocodile or a seal isn't much if a threat unless you intentionally run into them. I wouldn't compare them to a siberian tiger hunting buffaloes

@@trvth1s I'm not sure your reply relates to what I meant, I'll just restate my thinking. I meant there is an animal larger than a saltie that can come onto land, and it's a predator. Indeed _it_ is _the_ largest predatory animal (or animal whatsoever), that can freely come onto land.

Deinosuchus is amazing, crocodiles were my favorite animal but when I discovered the deinosuchus and other prehistoric crocs I was reasonably astonished. Also its really cool to me that crocodilans hunting strategies have been the same all these years.

Realistically, it actually makes sense that it’s bite would be lower than expected for its size. After it reaches a certain point of being able to break almost any bone, there’s no reason for it to go higher, 18 000 Newtons and 100 000 Newtons could kill something pretty equally, except one would require much more energy to make the muscle denser

@bigred84383 ай бұрын
from my observation of crocadillians today. It seems they may simply have to have had a bite force that allowed them to hold on to prey long enough to drown it rather than tear strips or chuncks of it while still alive. Crocodiles in Australia still drown their prey, but use a tactic called a "death roll", (oops you just mentioned that) in which they simply grab prey, then twist their body over and over and over to disorientate their prey as they take it under water.

Put it this way-if he latches on to you, the death roll is gonna hurt. If he doesn't just gulp you down after a good crunch.

My thought’s that there’s a missing massive sea Crocodile probably twice the size of these creatures. However, I think the biggest predator was a Plant or a sea Jellyfish.

I like the theory that basically states smaller but more effective predators were able to put compete it.
