Description
It should be a given by now with the themeSkelatals belong to Franoys randomdinos ScottHartman and PWNZ3R-Dragon
Tyrannnosaurus rex
The king of kings, the ruler of the dinosaurs; Tyrannosaurus really deserves its title at 40 feet and nearly 10 tons in the largest individuals these behemoths were rivaled by no other theropods. They quickly dominated North America being able to hunt just about anything. Scientists have discovered 2 notable "morphs" between the Tyrannosaurus genus and this has lead to the idea of 2 distinct species from different rock ages though as of recent this has been debunked.
Torvosaurus gurneyi
Stand aside Allosaurus cause this guy has your number. Being the largest land predator in all of Europe; Torvosaurus likely was the T. rex of its day. Even the armored stegosaurus would've been on the menu for this essentially "bipedal Komodo Dragon". Its musculature meant it could've been more risky around larger sized prey allowing the more gracile Allosaurus to prey on smaller, softer targets.
Mapusaurus roseae
Hard to believe this fella dethroned Giganotosaurus. This is the animal that is often depicted as Giga, it lived alongside Argentinosaurus and is often depicted as a deadly pack hunter. The chances of a well organized mammalian pack is more then likely not true but they may have used some what coordinated mob attacks like some crocodilians use. This would've allowed them to take on the giant sauropods.
Lightning Ridge Megaratoran (Brontonyx australensis)
As of now the genus is not yet named, the scientific name shown is one I came up with in the mean time (although it may likely be a more mature Australovenator). This megaraptoran was one of the largest land predators to live in Australia. The signature giant claws likely helped to disembowel prey of which likely included small to medium sized ornithopods and theyreaphorans.
Cryolophosaurus ellioti
This dinosaur has gotten some new recognition as of recent. Recent skeletal reconstructions suggest it may have been quite burly for an early theropod. That being said it was still a primitive dinosaur and made its home in Antarctica which way back in the early Jurassic would've been a lush forest full of life and game for this predator to hunt.
Deinocheirus mirificus
Discovered way back in the 1960s this great ornithomimosaur has puzzled researchers for decades that is until 2014 when new material was recovered from a black market of all places. This revealed a very strangely built giant dinosaur that looked like a spoonbill with arms. Its long almost hadrosaur shaped jaws might've allowed it to feed on mostly soft vegetation. Like its cousins it would've likely been covered in feathers, the extent of which has been disputed.
Spinosaurus aegypticus
Well here he is folks....the source of many a headache for paleo enthusiasts and the reason many people love Jurassic Park. Spinosaurus was a very oddly build theropod at first glance however once you understand its anatomy it makes more sense. These are are only one of two known aquatic dinosaurs, its webbed toes and long rudder like tail would've been enough to propel its bulk through water channels while it hunted fish.

really,i thought that spinosaurus was now a average sized big theropod,but i don't know,i don't think that spinosaurus,i think that sigilmassasaurus is the new theropod with the old spino size,and also,tyrannosaurus was a really short height for a big theropod,i really want to put the photo to prove this,but deviantart hates me so i can't do that
