This Was the True Rival of the Spinosaurus

In the wetlands of Late Cretaceous North Africa, a giant stalked the lands. It was one of Earth's largest predators ever, and weighed more than 88 people! You may think I am talking about the Spinosaurus, but I am referring to the forgotten king of those times, the Carcharodontosaurus.

[@dasmii2453]

Thank you so much for covering my favourite dinosaur of all time. Carcharodontosaurus is so underrated and i hope more people can appreciate it more in the future, especially with people like you sharing info surrounding it.

[@bkjeong4302]

It should be noted that ALL theropods with serrated teeth had reinforced serrations similar to surgical saws, so even theropods specialized for cutting through flesh were able to bite through bone (they would just have been slicing it rather than crushing it). Also, with Carcha and all other allosauroids, the *effective* bite force is actually far greater than the bite force generated by the jaw muscles, because the allosauroid killing bite worked in the same way as a sabretoothed cat’s killing bite: using the neck muscles to both “aim” an open-jawed head strike and, critically, to drive the upper jaw into prey teeth-first while the lower jaw snapped shut to provide leverage. Because of this you actually have to add the strength of the neck muscles to the strength of the jaw muscles to find the actual amount of force involved in an allosauroid bite.

[@joost1120]

They had powerful neck muscles, sure, but as far as I know they didn't use them to drive their teeth into their prey. The hatchet theory for allosaurids has proven to be quite unlikely. It's more likely that they used their powerful necks to rip their teeth through the prey's flesh, or thrash their prey around, similar to modern monitor lizards. Regardless, bite force isn't a direct comparison to the lethality of a bite. Plenty of other factors contribute to it. A snapping turtle's bite force is lower than that of a human, but they'll still take your finger off with ease.

[@bkjeong4302]

@@joost1120 I’m not talking about the hatchet head idea, I’m talking about pushing the upper jaw in with the neck AT THE SAME TIME as the mouth closing TO rip through the prey’s flesh, almost exactly like the killing bite of sabretoothed cats. Thrashing prey is unlikely given that the skull was mostly adapted to take dorsoventral stresses, rather than lateral ones. And yes, bite force is not the only significant variable in what makes a bite dangerous, but part of the reason for that is that a predator with the right adaptations can outsource the power behind its bite to other parts of its anatomy so it can bite with much more force than its actual bite force allows for-which is what is going on here.

[@darkdoubloontv8906]

Can you imagine just how devastating a bite from it would be? Even on a giant prey item? With such sharp, serrated teeth, and biting hard and deep enough to lose teeth, the second that thing gets a hold and pulls away, that's a HUGE chunk of flesh gone, and a tremendous amount of blood loss

[@tvvistedv3nom26]

Thanks for the video. Carchar is a much poorly understood dinosaur compare to T-rex, Spino, even Giga because only a partial skull was found so far, but teeth fossils are rather common, the teeth are thinner than Trex and have much sharper edge, allowing paleontologists to be almost certain that Carchar is a predator not a scavenger.

I was introduced to this dinosaur through the miniseries Dinosaur Planet. And through an encyclopedia I had and Dinosaur King, I’ve grown to love this creature. It is among many favorites.

[@wpower7435]

I hope someday they'll find more Carcharodontosaurs in Africa I believe they were common like in South America only difference is they are highly concentrated in South America I guess it is because of big abundance of huge Sauropods or it had little competition with other theropods probably this allowed them to be so huge as predators but that's just my personal guess overall interesting creatures

[@timothyvanhoeck233]

South America didn't have huge swaths of land blown up in a global conflict; thus one of the reasons why carcharodontosaur fossils seem more common there as opposed to Northern Africa. Also the conditions condusive for fossilization may have been vastly different between the two regions during the period in which fossilization occured (even if they were closer to one another then than they are now, they were still thousands of miles apart and separated by an already modestly wide early Atlantic Ocean). Contrary to popular opinion, the process of fossilization isn't nearly as simple or easy as many seem to think. Not to mention, the volatile nature of the Earth itself can easily destroy fossil evidence given enough time; with 250 million years being generally accepted as the general time frame in which the processes of plate tectonics can start to wipe entire portions of the fossil record from existence. This is one of the reasons why it's so difficult to find geological evidence linking certain cataclysmic events like flood basalt eruptions to a common source, especially those which occured prior to the end-Permian extinction. Much of the evidence has long since been destroyed.

Sadly with this video being 2 months old there are already some flaws in the details to some of the sizes of these beasts. The Spino ideally is the heaviest beast of its time. But with recent findings the T-rex is now found to be the biggest and heaviest predator to ever walk the earth. Scotty use to be the general size baseline for the biggest Rex discovered. But there is now findings of a Rex discovered that now trumps her in size.

10:00 I am very interested in the idea that many morphological adaptations aren't actually all that new and many basic animal types alive today already existed in slightly different forms during the eras of the dinosaurs. It's tragic that biodiversity in our time is in a state of virtual freefall because of human settlements cutting off most of the best ecological zones (that's where we tend to build our major cities especially on coast lines). Learning about the ecology of dinosaurs makes me feel ripped off that our biomes today have become so barren by comparison

[@rileyernst9086]

I'd not say flesh. It'd say tissue. Even small sharks cut through bone without any issue, because they saw through it, if you're not squimish you can literally see videos of kommodo dragons doing the same thing to goats. You need to be able to break up a carcass if you are a large predator and that includes dealing with bone. In my opinion the allosaurid skull and therefore carcharodontosaurid skull is designed to maximise the cut, like a shark, and like a bonesaw. It's long and narrow to maximise the length of the sawing tooth row, it's high arched to take stress from the tooth row, even the micro structure of the serrations take stress off the teeth and the skull top is thickened to absorb stress. There was a survey in the morrison formation where they found the idea of predatory dinosaurs avoiding bone was as simple as collection bias. They collected every single piece of bone at the site(shockingly including the damaged bone specimens that other digs would usually pass over, because they are damaged) and found that the bone damage ratio was similar to what you see in modern carnivores when feeding. This included damaged osteoderms from creatures like Gargoyleosaurus or Mymoorpelta. So it would seem they got hungry enough to chew on/through even the toughest carcasses available. We have plenty of evidence that Allosaurus was dealing with large amounts of bone, and I'd say that the carcharodontosaurs were a further refinement on what already worked. We have things like camarasaurus hip bones with Allosaurus jaw shaped furrows gouged in them, and sections missing entirely. We also have a number of corprolites from the morrison including the following article, which I will attach in whole as it's actually getting hard to track down. It's a record of the largest and most bone filled corprolite discovered to date. A LARGE MEAT-EATING DINOSAUR COPROLITE FROM THE JURASSIC MORRISON FORMATION OF UTAH Author(s): STONE, Dwayne D., Dept. of Geology, Marietta College, Marietta, OH 45750; CRISP, Edward L., Geology Dept., West Virginia University at Parkersburg, Parkersburg, WV 26101, [e-mail]; BISHOP, John R., Rt. 2 Box 137, Ravenswood, WV 26164 Keywords: Coprolite, Jurassic, Morrison Formation, Allosaurus A theropod dinosaur coprolite has been excavated in Emery County, Utah from a red-brown mudstone of the Upper Jurassic Brushy Basin Member of the Morrison Formation. The coprolite is nearly complete and is divisible into two parts, the main mass and a dribbling zone. The well-indurated main mass, which tapers at both ends, is 1.52 m in length, 0.457 m in maximum width, and 10.2 cm thick. The 1.52 m long dribbling zone consists of small isolated coprolites that curve towards the end of the dribbles. The coprolite geometry is interpreted to indicate that the main mass was defecated first, then the animal walked forward to release smaller amounts of feces. The coprolite consists of dark gray bone fragments, ranging from pebble to sand size, in a red-brown matrix. Bone fragments represent about 50% of the mass and have broken, jagged ends, possibly indicating breakage by the biting action of a carnivore. XRD analysis of the bone fragments and matrix reveal that both are primarily composed of carbonate fluorapatite. The large size of the coprolite and its geometry and stratigraphic location indicate that it represents fecal droppings from a large Allosaurus. Further support for this hypothesis is the fact that a broken distal end of an Allosaurus tooth was found within the coprolite, indicating that during mastication a tooth was broken and ingested. The carnivore did not grab a portion of flesh and bone from a prey animal and then swallow it whole. Instead the eater masticated its meal and broke the bones into smaller portions. This is the largest and oldest theropod dinosaur coprolite known. Work is continuing on a second theropod coprolite higher in the section at this location and pieces of theropod coprolites from two additional localities have been identified. Morrison Formation theropod coprolites are no longer considered to be absent or scarce and future searching should reveal additional large specimens.
