Prehistoric Breakdown: Tyrannotitan

Next Episode: • Prehistoric Breakdown:...
A great migration of some of the largest sauropods is taking place. However they must pass through a dangerous ravine, and waiting for them are some of the largest carnivores the world has ever seen.
Today we breakdown the sauropod slayer, Tyrannotitan.

I've seen a documentary where a single but experienced wolf took down a bison 5 or maybe even more times larger. So, I do think it's actually quite possible for even a large titanosaur to be taken down by a single theropod, thought that would be fairly rare.

[@wpower7435]

Tyrannotitan is one of the coolest name for a predator I've ever heard Carcharodontosaurs are huge damn and for some reason South America has the largest and they're the most common compare to other continents overall amazing powerful creatures

[@trethomas9202]

Great video as always, but Tyrannotitan is an amazing and underrated Carcharodontosaurid and one of my personal favorite Carcharodontosaurid and for the next Dinosaur could you possibly do Albertosaurus or Gorgosaurus

[@raptorrex3954]

While I haven't done either of them yet I will put them down to make episodes on. Though I have done a video on their close relative Daspletosaurus.

[@CyBromancer7562]

Tyrannotitan, giga's older cousin with a denser body, stronger jaws, larger teeth, AND a more badass name! Hopefully more Allosaurs are covered, such as the Neovenatorids like Siats, Chilantaisaurus, or Neovenator itself.

[@MonsterZero521]

Tyrannotitan is the biggest carnivorous dinosaur according to Andrew Cau. In 2015 scaling Tyrannotitan with the width of the femur yields a weight of 16,945 kg ( 16.9 tonnes)

Ik t. Rex gets all the glory for being the King. But Charcharosaurs had 5 out of the top 10 biggest theropods. Evolved to hunt the biggest dinosaurs, they as a group are elites in their own right

[@Shimosevilbrother99]

Top 10 largest theropods november 2023 1. Tyrannosaurus- 10.4 tonnes 2. Giganotosaurus- 10.1 tonnes 3. Carcharodontosaurus- 8.5 tonnes 4. Mapusaurus- 8.4 tonnes 5. Spinosaurus- 8.1 tonnes 6.

[@supertrike5893]

I guess being a living nightmare for sauropods runs in the family

Tyranotitan is an underrated carcaradontasaurid, overshadowed by giganotosaurus, mapusarus and carcaradontasaurs( have you made a video about shastasaurus?)

[@raptorrex3954]

I haven't yet, but I will put it down on my list of 'Species to Do'.

​@@raptorrex3954what about fasolasuchus? From what i remember its the largest non dinosaur land predator at 3 tons in weight

[@raptorrex3954]

@@soudino2723 I suppose I'll have to put that one down as well.

[@CyBromancer7562]

Fasolasuchus is definitely a crucial apex predator to cover! It was among the last Triassic carnivores, and probably the biggest. Growing up to 33 feet long, it was a sauropod eater! It was the largest "Land-croc" ever, the largest land predator the world had so far seen, and the largest four-legged ground-hunter of all time! Most of the public has not heard of it, despite it rivaling many top theropods in size and power!

Tyrannotitan is currently 12.25 meters & 7.36 tons Maybe in 2024 it may be 13 meters & 11.6 tons

[@jessehutchings]

I just wish we could send a drone back in time so we can see what these massive predator species did with their time from day to day. It would be incredibly fascinating to see how much time they spent resting, foraging, interacting or hunting. How often did they eat and how often was it a carcass or a live kill? It's so unfair that we can't see these amazing animals the way they actually were

[@user-is8jw5lc6n]

Good luck finding tachyons to get the drone travelling back in time, dearest 😂❤

[@gattycroc8073]

it's been almost a year since your last crocodylomorph video and there are just so many species to cover.

[@lightman3581]

Thank you for making a video about Tyrannotitan . Quick question, will next week episode be a episode about Patagotitan or will it have as it’s title Prehistoric Breakdown :Tyrannotitan part 2?

[@raptorrex3954]

It will be on Patagotitan

[@felidusmaximus]

How about Brachauchenius or Megacephalosaurus? Marine faunal turnover at the time of the last pliosaurs is pretty rad.
