Colossal New Predatory Dino Terrorized Early Tyrannosaurs

A new species of carnivorous dinosaur was discovered. It is said to be one of the three largest dinosours ever discovered in North America. Siats meekerorum, is the newly discovered species and is believed to have kept Tyrannosaurs from assuming the top predatory role for millons of years. Siats is only the second carcharodontosaur to be discovered in North America. Acrocanthosaurus, discovered in 1950, was the first. From the remains it is believed to be abour 30 feet long and weight at least 4 tons, and this one was only a juvinile. This is amazing to me that at one time on Earth there where huge 30 foot long animals killing each other everywhere. This was definitly a very intresting article.
