Re: Horner's JP3 interview
James Aronis (quoting Jack Horner):
"We do know that [the spino] had a skull that was eight feet long, and a body
that
was about 60 feet long," Jack Horner [said]. "If we base the ferocious factor
on
the length of the animal, there was nothing that ever lived on this planet
that
could match this creature. Also, my hypothesis is that T-rex was actually a
scavenger rather than a killer. Spinosaurus was really the predatory animal."
So let me see if I've got this straight:
Stocky legs; gharial snout; eyes to the side = predator
Long, slim legs; heavily reinforced skull; binocular vision = scavenger.
Hm...
