THe final battle

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-13 18:41:00well id imagine ingen wouldn't breed to many because they were just tag and release plus know one wants to be eating a sandwich in the communications facility and have a big mad t rex come through the wall, with an assumed brood of like maybe 5 per genetic recreation only a 2 would've reach full adult hood and the others probably would've been picked off by predators on the island id assume they would've had about maybe 2-3 batches of rex's the first batch probably would've died before the accident the second batch would be close to adult hood one would've died during the accident and i imagine that the last of b.2 would've died eventually while b.3 attained adult hood... because they wouldn't make a new batch until the rex's were about maybe 1-3 years old i dunno dont want to do the math so we'll stick with that

Tyrannosaurus RexMember6270 XP2013-05-13 19:08:00Does anyone else remember the scene in TLW when someone looked out the window of the bus and it showed into the forest? I didn't see anything in the trees, so I assumed it would be a T-Rex, but the Rexs were brown in the movie, so maybe that was a young Spino, but I don't know.

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-13 20:28:00It WAS a young spino, the one in the movie was only 43 feet in length, but average adults grow to 54 or bigger, so both the trex and the spino was young

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-13 20:33:00the average size was probably even 60 or more in length considering that was the size of the only spinosaurus found, it could be a coincidence, but it is VERY unlikly

Tyrannosaurus RexMember6270 XP2013-05-13 20:55:00Yeah, ONLY 43 feet. Spino likely did get to 54-60 feet in length. It was longer than T-Rex by about 10-20 feet. But T-Rex could probably still win because it had a much higher bite force (shut up S-Rex, I know), and it was more heavily built. Spino was huge, but it would be harder for Spino to knock T-Rex off balance, and if it fell on its back, it would be screwed. If you want outdated info, both were slow stupid lumbering beasts that dragged their tails on the ground.

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-13 21:11:00Yup, I agree with your outcome and the facts are very much true plus, 25,000 million years of evolution between them, I still say Rex all the way.

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-13 21:27:00omg!!!!! you DONT know if it was more heavily built, nobody freakin knows, we only have BONES, you are making shit up just to make it sound better

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-13 21:28:00and you keep forgetting the only bones of spino were DESTROYED

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-13 21:35:00i would love it if spinosaurus came back and beat the shit out of you guys for telling lies and false data, lol

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-13 21:54:00spinosaurus rex you been to any museums lately its not the 40's anymore many spinosaurus have been unearthed, yes we dont know what they looked like but we have skeleton and muscle reconstruction software that calculates how much skin and muscles they had, i know quite a lot of the field of palaeontology and what they do okay so before you say something think for a minute will ya? also none of this data is false for god sakes i have stated it about 100 times already just accept the facts and move on. also in evolutionary terms rex was indeed more superior with 25,000 million years in between them rex had enough time to develop the fierceness that put spino into extinction, rex was more evolutionary fit for combat its survival of the fittest, spino went extinct before t rex meaning it was not suit to adapt and survive it died out, HOWEVER rex was killed of by the Cretaceous extinction what ever it was it killed out the possible millions of years that rex could've kept thriving... these facts are true no matter if you deny to accept them, the truth is there you just cant bear to here the news that spino would've lost no matter what.... just accept it for crying out loud dragging it out more isn't going to do anything

Tyrannosaurus RexMember6270 XP2013-05-14 05:59:00Nice picture, if it was anything besides Jurassic Park, I'd expect there to be blood everywhere. Documentaries say T-Rex was heavily built, I know I heard T-Rex was more heavily built, and T-Rex is 7 tons, Spino is 8-10 tons, and 15-20 feet longer, and 5-10 feet taller, so Spino is still 1-3 tons heavier, and it has the extra height and length. T-Rex's bones were denser than Spino's. Have'nt there only been two partial skeletons discovered? The one that got bombed sucks because scientists could have used them to see about how old it was when it died. I think Spino's size is more based on it's arm size compared to the arm size of Baryonyx (maybe outdated S-Rex).

CompsognathusMember1 XP2013-05-14 06:34:00Love the picture ! Hahahah spinosaurus rex needs ya own fan page me thinks ! Oh n by the way the biggest specimin found was SUE ! So i was goin by the largest found! Which was 42ft long n 14.5 ft high Bored of writing facts now lol

Rex Fan 684

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-14 14:50:00The largest complete rex was Sue. One skeleton found near Fort Peck in Montana was less complete, but bigger overall. An estimated 50 feet long and 8 tons at least. Plus, one study that used laser scans to make 3D models of T-rex showed it was heavier than previously thought. They scanned 5 rex skeletons, including Sue, and found out that Sue was the slimmest and still weighed at least 9 tons!

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-14 20:12:00dude it WAS the only parts of spinosaurus found, your talking about replicas smart one

CompsognathusMember5 XP2013-05-14 20:16:00and im sick of you people sayin trexes bones were more dense, no one knows, especially considering the only bones of spino were destroyed and werent well preserved anyways

Tyrannosaurus RexMember6270 XP2013-05-14 20:42:00Are you trying to prove everyone on Team Rex wrong? It's probably not going to happen. Maybe people THINK that T-Rex's bones were denser due to it's diet of tank like dinosaurs and it needed to be able to take a hit (not saying Spino can't take a hit). The only bones of Spino weren't destroyed, some were discovered more recently. Spino had conical teeth, which were used for gripping stuff (like maybe a fish), and it's arms were for tearing because it's teeth were not designed for tearing.

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-16 19:33:00For all those who think Spino had a strong bite force because it had crocodile jaws, sorry, but you are wrong. Yes, crocs and gators have the strongest bites today, but Spinos jaws remind me of a gharial. There's a croc w/ relatively weak jaws. That's what Spino had.

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-22 21:41:00That fight scene would be good to watch... But has one major flaw. I will touch on that in a min. While both creatures were respectable in their own right t-Rex with its massive head and bone crushing jaws and spino with the massive front limbs with claws and unusual size for a fishing Dino.... So here my take on this battle. Trex brute force wise would be hard to deal with especially in close quarters forest combat spinos size would work against it being less Manuaverable around the trees but the large claws and forearms help. A well place bite from the Rex and the spino is down as well as a good slash from the spino could severely wound the Rex to make it easy for the kill. But the major flaw with this fight and the scene made above is the spino's sail . Which is its ultimate down fall because the sail isn't just a plate attached to flesh like stegosaurus the sail run down into the Bertabrates of spinos back which it were to topple over from a head but or like described above with a well time kick it would break its back incampassitating it and would lead to its death via Rex or even a pack of smaller Dino's such as the many species of raptor that inhabited the same area as the spinosaur

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-23 09:15:00i-i dont fully see your point, yes given that the bones are attached to the vertebrae, but if it were to fall on them from that big of a kick, id think it would snap them from the vertebrae, not killing, horribly wounding yes... there are no other creatures in this fight for one good reason, the fight is for spino vs rex , not spino vs rex vs raptor vs dilo , anything else youd like for me to clear up?

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-23 17:07:00Wasn't making it Dino vs Dino vs Dino the raptor rid bit or any pack creature remark was for spinosaurus Rex He's claiming spino was the baddest thing to walk the earth but it was mostly made extinct by smaller pack creatures being able to out smart and out last them in a changing environment ...

Chaos_theory

CompsognathusMember0 XP2013-05-23 17:15:00I'm in agreement with you trex would most likely when a head to head battle on lifestyles and the prey difficulty it had to kill to survive spino had nothing compared to triceratops or ankylosaurus it had to try and kill it dealt with easy kill prey... It's like pitting a tiger vs a lion yea tiger bigger and bulkier but it has very little competition in its habitat but the lion deals with many other carnivores and harder prey to kill giving it an edge in combat and experience defending itself

Tyrannosaurus RexMember6270 XP2014-07-31 18:23:00

Ah yes, the original Rex vs Spino. Everyone was thick headed and near sited and didn't really listen to what anyone was saying.

@Mr.Happy

Thats putting it Mildly buddy.

Ah memories.

So, If I'm correct... This is THE Original. This is the very First FBR...

How someone found it is beyond me.

I posted multiple like this.

The comment before mine was from may 2013, to give you an idea on how forgotten this was. I was actually digging through old topics for the hell of it and the title got my attention.
