Carnotaurus sastrei
Final for Carnotaurus sastrei. A farely large predatory dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous (72 - 69.9 million years ago), it is mostly defined by it’s short bulldog like skull sporting 2 large horns mounted on it’s brow just above the eyes. The bull-like placement of the horns were not lost on the scientist who discovered it, José Bonaparte, deriving it’s name from the Latin words meaning “meat-eating bull.”
It was a member of the Abelisauridae family, a group of predatory dinosaurs that dominated the southern continents during the Cretaceous, it’s thought that the lack of Tyrannosaur competition was one key to their success.
Coincidentally the 1985 Argentinian expedition on which Carnotaurus was discovered was the same expedition that Amargasaurus was discovered on, a bizarre sauropod dinosaur that I have previously rendered. The original specimen found on that expedition was even found with skin impressions, including some on the skull, the skull impressions were however sadly destroyed during excavation. The impressions showed an animal that was covered in scale fairly uniform scales.
Recent research has revealed that the muscles that connected the animal’s tail to it’s thigh were extremely large and would have pulled the leg back for a very strong running stroke, leading scientists to theorize that Carnotaurus was a very swift runner as it was also relatively lightly build for it’s size, weighing in at around 2.2 to 2.3 tons, which is light for an animal of roughly 30 feet in length.
Given it’s almost completely useless forelimbs and the power of it’s legs, it’s appropriate to think of Carnotaurus as a 30 foot horned cheetah, spending it’s time sprinting after smaller prey and gobbling it up without a second thought.
