Spinosaurus is one of the most fascinating & unusual dinosaurs ever discovered. Living around 95 to 100 million years ago during the Cretaceous period, Spinosaurus roamed what is now North Africa in countries like Egypt & Morocco.
 
A Spinosaurus dinosaur was actually the longest therapod dinosaur, even longer than the famous T-Rex, growing up to 18 metres long and was tall as a male giraffe!
 
Unlike most other large theropods, its thought that the Spinosaurus wasn’t just a land-based predator. Fossil evidence actually shows that it probably spent much of its time in water, hunting fish & swimming through vast river systems.
 
In fact, it’s the only known dinosaur adapted for a semi-aquatic lifestyle, this huge dinosaur had a sail like fin to navigate when swimming and a long, crocodile-like snout for holding onto slippery prey.
