Tenontosaurus vs Utahraptor


with a mass of somewhere between 1 to 2 tonnes (1 to 2 short tons)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenontosaurus

Would a 1000 lb Utahraptor really have a chance against a 2000 - 4000 lb tenosaurus?
how about i request something else instead?


Allosaurus vs Muttaburrasaurus

Giganotosaurus v Diplodocus

A 11 tonnes Sauropod v a 8 tonnes Theropod would be a fair match.


1. Diplodocus carnegii v Giganotosaurus carolinii

Concavenator vs Shaochilong


2. Concavenator corcovatus v Shaochilong maortuensis
None as far as I am aware of, but tyrannosaurs do mostly hunt in packs (eg:daspletosaurus, albertosaurus and gorgosaurus). So thats something.
This again..... Taipan brought up a good point before, behaviors don't always replicate in relatives.
I never said they hunted cooperativly, I said that other species of tyrannosaur hunting cooperativly. So that indicates a small chance that they hunted cooperativly. Could you please read the statement more carefully before jumping to conclusions. Also they don't need to hunt cooperativly to attack the spinosaurus, They can just attack.

This implied hunting cooperatively. Just because others hunt in packs doesn't mean others do. Either way, Taipan doesn't accept pack fighting requests in which there is no direct evidence of pack hunting. I am not "jumping to conclusions". And I'm pretty sure you need to work cooperatively if fighting in a pack.

I am not saying they hunt in packs I said that there is a mere possibility they hunt in packs due to the high number of tyrannosaurs that hunt in packs. you litterally cut that bit out on purpose. Also you don't need to cooperate while fighting with others in a group you can mob attack your rival.

^ Books are not really reliable sources, they can often get outdated when they get published. And many books often have so much inaccuracies, like in this thread.

Totally depends on what kind of book. Proper scientific ones are just as reliable as papers, perhaps more so considering they are usually more elaborate and have been worked on more extensively. Of course this doesn't apply to the crappy children's dinosaur book you can buy in any local bookshop...

A small chance? The chance is pretty big, at least bigger than the chance that it didn't hunt cooperatively even tough the phylogenetic relationship is no hard proof for it.

btw look at this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrannosaurus#Pack_behavior

It appears Currie has brought forth evidence for social behaviour in Tarbosaurus bataar in his book, which I haven't read.

Cryolophosaurus vs Majungasaurus


"Cryolophosaurus was estimated as being 6.5 m (21.3 ft) in length and weighing approximately 465 kilograms (1,030 lb). Based on this weight estimate, Cryolophosaurus would be the largest known Early Jurassic theropod.[4] Smith et al. (2007) noted that this individual may represent a sub-adult."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryolophosaurus

Sampson and Witmer estimated an average weight for an adult Majungasaurus of 1130 kilograms (2400 lb).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majungasaurus

The above weight estimates suggest that would be a mismatch.

But the Cryolophosaurus is possibly a subadult. Adults would be comparable in size to Majungasaurus.
