‘Liopleurodon: Jurassic Sea Monster’ on youtube clips from ‘Walking with Dinosaurs’ TV doco. An impressive creature indeed! Timeline for evolutionary link could well be wrong though given this is Jurassic and Spinosaurus was Early-Late Cretaceous – maybe a distant common ancestor between them?

Hmm.. actually do I recall vaguely that the sea monsters weren’t related to dinosaurs after all? D’oh. There goes that speculation then I guess!

(Also only three comments here, I am surprised – is there another missing page of them or something?)

He had a bite force of about 2 tons, and he had long strong arms with 6-8 in. claws that could make cuts over 2 in. deep. Like Tyrannosaurus, Spinosaurus could kick with his legs but would most likely not for the same reasons. Those are the weapons of Spinosaurus.
