Spinosauridae: A Brief Description


J-Bot

Recommended Posts

Spinosauridaes were a family of large carnivorous Dinosaurs, first appearing at the very end of the Jurassic.  They have crocodile-like skulls and teeth, large hands, arms and claws and in some cases, arched backs and/or spines.  Their diet mainly included fish and other aquatic animals but if the opportunity arose for a larger meal like another Dinosaur, they would most likely take it.  Because of their mainly aquatic diet, they probably avoided most conflicts with other predators of their region.  Not to much is known about this family, since it's somewhat recent in the fossil community, though it's still quite interesting in most peoples opinion.

Baryonyx is a personal favorite
