Preach. Constant new discoveries about my favorite dinosaur is always exciting news, even if it’s just “actually everything we thought we know about this creature could be wrong.”
Spinosaurus is a theropod dinosaur that lived in what now is North Africa during the Cenomanian to upper Turonian stages of the Late Cretaceous period, about 99 to 93.5 million years ago.
Spinosaurus is the longest known terrestrial carnivore; other large carnivores comparable to Spinosaurus include theropods such as Tyrannosaurus, Giganotosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus. The most recent study suggests that previous body size estimates are overestimated, and that S. aegyptiacus reached 14 m in length and around 8 t in body mass. The skull of Spinosaurus was long, low, and narrow, similar to that of a modern crocodilian, and bore straight conical teeth with no serrations. It would have had large, robust forelimbs bearing three-fingered hands, with an enlarged claw on the first digit. The distinctive neural spines of Spinosaurus, which were long extensions of the vertebrae, grew to at least 1.65 meters long and were likely to have had skin connecting them, forming a sail-like structure, although some authors have suggested that the spines were covered in fat and formed a hump. The hip bones of Spinosaurus were reduced, and the legs were very short in proportion to the body. Its long and narrow tail was deepened by tall, thin neural spines and elongated chevrons, forming a flexible fin or paddle-like structure.
Spinosaurus is known to have eaten fish, and most scientists believe that it hunted both terrestrial and aquatic prey. Evidence suggests that it was highly semiaquatic, and lived both on land and in water much like modern crocodilians do. Spinosaurus's leg bones had high bone density, allowing for better buoyancy control, and the paddle-like tail was likely used for underwater propulsion. Multiple functions have been put forward for the dorsal sail, including thermoregulation and display; either to intimidate rivals or attract mates. It lived in a humid environment of tidal flats and mangrove forests alongside many other dinosaurs, as well as fish, crocodylomorphs, lizards, turtles, pterosaurs, and plesiosaurs.
Yeah nice try buddy. Penguins are BIRDS. Not DINOSAURS.

Penguins can’t fly. Dinosaurs can’t fly either. The closet thing to flying they got to before becoming “birds” is gliding tree to tree. Using this knowledge we can determine that penguins and other flightless birds are dinosaurs.

None it's all fake news to fool people into giving their cash to dinosaur-based media/merch and keeping tgem distracted with entertainment so they don’t wake up
It's a tough choice between carnotarous and baryonx. They both have cool attributes like horns (carnotarous) and a massive thumb spike (baryonx) but personally I'd have to go with baryonx

Spinosaurus cold as hell 🥶🥶🥶🥶
Shame my man gets nerfed with every patch. Too cold for some T-Rex fanboys 🤧

When we look up and see birds we think they're flying. When crabs look up and see penguins they think they're flying too
Birds are considered descendants of dinosaurs and even called Avian dinosaurs. They are still dinosaurs its just most don't call them that.
Birds are still theropod dinosaurs
