And I'm back here to end august with a dinosaur, but just any dinosaur this is the 31 one dinosaur that I have did a blog about. Dino August was a blast. Dino Lord.
The Gorgosaurus had the same body like all tyrannosaurids with a large head on an s-shaped neck, small arms and bipedal. As with other tyrannosaurids, Gorgosaurus went through an initial stage of slow growth when young before suddenly shooting up to adult size within a few years. Normally it is found that the femur is the longest bone in the leg, but some specimens of young Gorgosaurus show the tibia was the longer of two. Gorgosaurus would have focused on hunting fast moving prey such as Ornithomimids. This shift would include hunting more larger prey such Hadrosaurs to sustain the large diet. Two different hunting styles that was used by the adult and the juvenile and Gorgosaurus was 8 to 9 meters long and lived the Campanian of the Cretaceous and had over sixty in its mouth.
