Description:

At their peak in the Late Jurassic, packs of flesh-eating Allosaurus roamed throughout much of North America, Africa, and Australia. A pack of hungry, thirty-six-foot-long, two-ton carnivores arriving on the scene is enough to frighten herds of larger dinosaurs. A pack of Allosaurus will cull the weak, sick, or young members out of a grazing herd of Apatosaurus or Stegosaurus. The Allosaurus pack works together to make the kill and protect themselves from the rest of the prey's herd.

Its larger and more famous cousin, Tyrannosaurus Rex, sometimes overshadows the Allosaurus--even the name Allosaurus means "other lizard." Both of these hunters are members of the Theropod or "Beast Foot" order of dinosaurs. Although shorter than the T. Rex in length, the Allosaurus stands just as high as its cousin. Because Allosaurus will work together as a pack, they can prey on even larger dinosaurs then the T. Rex. Moreover, the smaller Allosaurus can run much faster than their heavier relatives, allowing them to capture swifter and more agile prey.

The Allosaurus has a huge head with knobs and small horns over the eyes. A hinged jaw allows the Allosaurus to take huge bites with its sharp and narrow teeth, useful for bringing down its prey and consuming it afterwards. The Allosaurus has an unusually strong neck for a predatory dinosaur in order to support its powerful head. The supporting bones of its neck curve in the shape of an S. Allosaurus is a bipedal dinosaur, walking upright on its two massive legs. It arms are short in order to maintain balance. However, each arm has three razor-sharp six-inch claws, so they are not useless appendages.

The long tail of the Allosaurus is very stiff and heavy, so that it can be used to balance the creature's massive head. This permits Allosaurus to travel quickly in pursuit of prey. Each of the heavy legs has three big toes that serve to support its weight, and a tiny back toe with a sharp claw. This extra claw combined with the size and weight of its legs makes this dinosaur’s kick something best avoided.

The Life Cycle

Who do they like to live with and eat?

 

To build a good animal exhibit you need to ask a few questions: (click them for the answers)

Which fence is suitable for this animal in terms of strength, if it can be climbed or jumped over?

How big should the exhibit be and what Terrain should be used?

What foliage should be used?

What rocks should be used?

What shelter does the animal need?

What toy does the animal like?

How deep should the exhibit be if using the "Pit Method"?
