Out of Africa: meat-eating dinosaurs that challenge Tyrannosaurus rex
Article Abstract:
Two species of late-Cretaceous carnivores that resemble Tyrannosaurus were found in Morocco in 1995. Carcharodontosaurus and a new coelurosaurian theropod, along with the recently discovered Giganotosaurus of Argentina, add new understanding of paleogeography, but also pose new questions.
