Carcharodontosaurus is a genus of carnivorous theropod dinosaur that lived in North Africa from about 100 to 94 million years ago during the Cenomanian age of the Cretaceous.

Appearance and Behavior[]
A Carcharodontosaurus was 10–12.5 m (33–41 ft) in length and approximately 4–7 metric tons (4.4–7.7 short tons) in body mass, large, lightly built skull with a triangular rostrum. It's jaws were lined with sharp, recurved, serrated teeth that bear striking resemblances to those of the great white shark. They had tiny forelimbs, robust and muscular hindlimbs.
The documentary known as BBC Earth's Planet Dinosaur shows a logical scenario as Carcharodontosaurus was likely an opportunistic and active predator and a scavenger, like the vast majority of modern carnivores today.
