===Allosaurus(10)===
Allosaurus is one of the top predators. While most specimens grow up to 9.5 meters long, the largest specimen (formerly identified as Epanterias) grew to 12.1 meters long, making it one of the biggest predator on the land, almost as big as Tyrannosaurus Rex, but with a more light build and a relatively weaker bite, designed to rip flesh rather than to crush bone. They were probably pack hunters and used their numbers to catch larger animals such as Apatosaurus and Diplodocus. Proof of this was shown in the Cleveland Lloyd-Quarry with 75% of the bones belonged to Allosaurus. Though, not everyone agrees and think that like modern reptiles, it showed aggression to each other. The name Allosaurus means "different lizard". Allosaurus was mostly found in many parts of North America including Utah, Colorado, Dakota, Texas, and other parts of the U.S, but also Allosaurus ranged into parts of Africa such Tanzania etc, and also Australia has a smaller, dwarf-species version. An adult individual of Allosaurus measures 4 m tall, is over 12 m long and weighs up 2-5 tonnes in weight. Moreover, the body of this dinosaur is agile and flexible enough for them to be the most successful, best-adapted predators. One basic features of Allosaurus is its teeth, which are sharp long and serrated, and built more like knives to tear and slice up flesh from the bodies of its victims. Its claws are long and sharp, helping not only leave scars but also its arms are opposal, and it can actually cling on to its victims. Its feet are designed for speed enabling 25km/ph and were fast enough to help it run long distances, and can leap and jump short-distances when close-contact with its prey. Also it has 3 clawed feet and can use them to slice open flesh, and also to help him seem lighter when walking and running. Its tail is long and strong enough to keep balance while running, and can change directions quickly in order for this. Unlike the carnivores such as the Tyrannosaurus rex, allosaurs hunt in packs with or without family units but only when hunting giant prey such as Sauropods.
