A theropod dinosaur which, due to recent finds, currently holds the coveted title of "biggest meat eating dinosaur", displacing Giganotosaurus, which in turn displaced Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Spinosaurus was relatively obscure among the general public until it was featured in the film Jurassic Park III, where it replaced the T-Rex as the film's primary antagonist, appearing on JPIII's logo and and killing one in a breif fight near the beginning of the film. This defeat, however, did little to sway the popularity of T-Rex; indeed, many fans reacted negatively to the outcome of the fight. Dinosaur fans often debate the true outcome of such a battle, though in reality it could never take place due to the Spinosaurus and Tyrannosaurus living on different continents and existing millions of years apart from eachother. It is generally thought that the Tyrannosaurus' superior jaw strength would give it an advantage in such a battle.
However, the depiction of the Spinosaurus in JPIII as an unstoppable superpredator was inaccurate. Its delicate, bony dorsal fin and long, gator-like snout armed with straight, peglike teeth (as opposed to the ribbed, serrated fangs of theropods such as T-Rex), indicate that this beast was a specialised icthyovore as opposed to a hunter of large dinosaurs, growing massive on a diet of fish, as well as pterosaurs, crocodiles and just about anything else it could swallow whole.
Spinosaurus is closely related to Baryonyx and Suchomimus, but not to the similar looking Dimetrodon, which lived before the age of the dinosaurs.

Spinosaurus was a large predator, attaining a length of up to 60 feet and 5 tons. Despite his size, the carnivore was depicted in eating fish, but may have hunted small-sized dinosaurs. The mouth of the therapd was designed to catch fish, rather than crush or kill. The skull and the fragments were quite fragile, so the therapod had a very weak bite.
Spinosaurus was also shown in the movie Jurassic Park 3. Being depicted as a much more stronger, smarter and larger dinosaur then its past star, Tyrannosaurus. Spinosaurus was also seen defeating the notorious T. Rex. Although the depiction is false due to the fact that both carnivores never met in real life. Spinosaurus had many fragile bones. Its long sails and crocodile-like snout were not as strong as it seemed to be in JP3.
Many JP Fans have been debating over which was better if the the two ACTUALLY met in real life. Though Tyrannosaurus Rex would've won if it fought the huge Spinosaurus. Tyrannosaurus was built for hunting medium-sized animals. Spinosaurus was built for eating fish, and the chances of it winning are 1.5%/97.5%. Because of this the dinosaur wasn't adapted to hunting and spent most of his life wading in water and catching fish.

Get the Spinosaurus mug.The worst! These 12-year old fanboys believe that their fish-eating dinosaur is a god that is 70 feet long. They are usually crybabies who rage everytime they see Tyrannosaurus win. We wouldn't have these trolls if it weren't for Jurassic Park.
