Carcharodontosaurus

Carcharodontosaurus is named after its long sharp teeth with their deadly serrations. It is also known as the 'shark-toothed' or 'jagged-toothed' lizard. Its teeth would have slashed through flesh with ease, making it one of the most feared and successful of North Africa. It was also one of the longest and heaviest, being slightly larger than North America's , although its brain was probably smaller. Two teeth were first identified in Algeria in 1927 and more findings followed in the 1990's. It is highly likely that Carcharodontosaurus would have come into conflict with the largest of all time - . This would have been a battle of epic proportions.
