Passage 3 Scientists have discovered the bones of what may be the largest meat-eating dinosaur ever to walk the earth. The discovery was made by a team of researchers from Argentina and North America in Patagonia a desert on the eastern slopes of the Andes in South America. Besides the interesting fact that the dinosaur was huge and horrifying it is even more astounding that the bones of a number of the dinosaurs were found together. This discovery challenges the prior theory that the biggest meat-eaters lived as loners and instead indicates that they may have lived and hunted in packs. The Tyrannosaurus Rex lived in North America and was believed to hunt and live alone. The newly discovered meat-eater appears to be related to the Giganotosaurus family being as closely related to it as a fox would be to a dog. It is actually not of the same family at all as the Tyrannosaurus Rex being as different from it as a cat is from a dog. The fossilized remains indicate that the animals lived about 100 million years ago. With needle-shaped noses and razor sharp teeth they were larger than the Tyrannosaurus Rex although their legs were slightly shorter and their jaws were designed to be better able to dissect their prey quickly and precisely. 280 24.
