Spinosaurus

The Spinosaurus

***Spinosaurus*** is a genus of Spinosauridae dinosaur that appears in the first season of Dinosaurs Battle World Championship as well as the Special Events.

## In DBWC

In DBWC, *Spinosaurus* is portrayed with a green color and an orange sail. Its snout is long and it has large arms, compared to other theropods in the series. In the series, *Spinosaurus* has appeared in more episodes than any other creature. It defeated *Amargasaurus*, *Minmi*, *Pentaceratops*, *Giganotosaurus* and was finally defeated in the final match of Season 1 by the *Tyrannosaurus*. It also appears in many Special Events, where it killed *Sarcosuchus*, *Indominus Rex* (while in a team with *Baryonyx*, fighting *Indominus Rex* and *Indoraptor*), *Mosasaurus*, and was killed in a fight against *Tyrannosaurus* and *Indominus Rex*. In King Over King Ep 1, *Spinosaurus* teamed up with Scar-face to battle *Tyrannosaurus* and Scar-chest after the end of Season 1, which *Spinosaurus* somehow survived.

## In the Real World

*Spinosaurus* lived in North Africa 94 million years ago, during the Mid Cretaceous period. It was a spinosaurid theropod dinosaur, the family that contains some of the largest carnivores to ever walk the earth. The exact size of *Spinosaurus aegypticus* has been a topic of much debate. Sizes suggested range from 12 to 15 meters in length and 4 to 8 tons in weight. The uncertainty of its true size is because if the fact that very little of its skeleton is know, so most of what we know is from comparing its remains to more complete spinosaurids like *Baryonyx*. The diet of *Spinosaurus* was comprised mostly of river fish, which it hunted using massive claws and long, narrow jaws like a crocodilian. It is likely, however, that it woukd substitute on medium-sized terrestrial dinosaurs when food was scarce. It's long, flat sided tail was probably used for swimming through the water, while it's sail could've served for a similar purpose or something different. Despite being portrayed as tall with a circular spine, *Spinosaurus* in fact had relatively short legs and probably moved bipedally at least part of the time. It's sail was shaped more like two humps. Reaching up to 7 feet high. It was used for scaring off other predators and to regulate heat from the sun. Whatever the controversy, we can tell that *Spinosaurus aegypticus* was the longest carnivore to ever walk the earth! *Tyrannosaurus* would still be heavier.

## Fighting Tactics

Much like the other theropods in the series, *Spinosaurus* uses all of its limbs in battle. It can use its its tail like a whip or club, knocking back opponents it hits. Its jaws are powerful, and uses to snap necks or throw around similar sized creatures by biting the tail. When fighting similar sized creatures, *Spinosaurus* will use its foot to kick back opponents. It also puts its claws to use, slashing enemies in the eyes or body. In Spinosaurus vs Minmi, *Spinosaurus* used its jaws to throw a *Minmi* into the mud in the Swamp, and the other out into the trees. However, *Spinosaurus* is perfectly capable of using its jaws to crush enemies or claws to slash them to death.

Spinosaurus vs Amargasaurus saw the *Spinosaurus* using its jaws very effectively, biting the tail of one *Amargasaurus* to throw it to the ground before delivering a fatal bite to its body. The *Spinosaurus*' strength and ferocity payed off, as it made it to the finals in Season 1 and although it lost the match, it survived to battle its rival once again in King Over King Ep 1.
