There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Just thought I may as well put in my $0.2 for this thread.

Ibrahim's Spinosaurus is actually a GOOD thing for dejected Spinosaurus fans, believe it or not.
Why?
No matter how badly Spinosaurus may lose to an opponent in 1 terrain (say, T rex on land or killer whale in the other), it absolutely dominates in the other and its opponent has even less chance than Spinosaurus on the other terrain.
Yes, you read that right. It's perfectly accurate, reasonable, and appropriate to give Spinosaurus an overall vote against T rex, or just about any other animal for that matter.

Spinosaurus' s head into water. Spinosaurus in ambush like the extant crocs ? Difficult to believe it, its dorsal vertebraes would betray it in case of a surprise attack toward a drinking dinosaur at the river. So what, is it swimming like this for catching a fish ? Doubtful too. Thus I would believe that a spinosaurus swimming like that isn't dangerous. I think a spinosaurus surprised its prey through the way described in the BBC Documentary "Planete Dinosaures" by dipping its long snout into water.

Spinosaurus took an interesting evolutionary path. Most late Cretaceous Theropods have forgone arms in favour of legs. For Spinosaurus, it seems to be the other way around.

Baryonyx means 'Heavy Claw' and it's pretty much self-explanatory why...

Spinosaurus, clearly quadrupedal ?

" Spinosaurus has changed dramatically since I was a kid. The model I used to terrorize my other toys with looked like an overgrown Allosaurus with a giant sail on its back. As paleontologists rearranged the dinosaur family tree and found new species, however, they realized that Spinosaurus was a very different sort of animal, allied with croc-snouted, heavy-clawed dinosaurs like Baryonyx. When Spinosaurus finally tore up the celluloid in 2001’s Jurassic Park III, it was as a monstrous carnivore with giant claws, an elongated snout filled with conical teeth, and a flashy fin atop its back. And the evolution of Spinosaurus imagery has not stopped. A paper out in Sciencexpress proposes that Spinosaurus was far stranger than paleontologists expected.. ".

An other depiction of Spinosaurus swimming.

" The Spinosaurus fossil specimen, BSP 1912 VIII 19, described by Ernst Stromer in 1915 was destroyed when the Paleontological Museum Munich, (where the specimen was kept) bombed by British aircraft during the bombardment of the city of Munich, Germany on April 24-25, 1944 in World War II 2. Though the fossil specimen is a holotype of Spinosaurus. War not only harms the economy and development of the country, but also science. "
