Carnotaurus

In Real Life
Carnotaurus was a lightly built, bipedal predator, measuring 7.5 to 9 m (24.6 to 29.5 ft) in length and weighing at least 1.35 metric tons (1.33 long tons; 1.49 short tons). As a theropod, Carnotaurus was highly specialized and distinctive. It had thick horns above the eyes, a feature unseen in all other carnivorous dinosaurs, and a very deep skull sitting on a muscular neck. Carnotaurus was further characterized by small, vestigial forelimbs and long, slender hind limbs. The skeleton is preserved with extensive skin impressions, showing a mosaic of small, non-overlapping scales approximately 5 mm in diameter. The mosaic was interrupted by large bumps that lined the sides of the animal, and there are no hints of feathers. The distinctive horns and the muscular neck may have been used in fighting conspecifics. According to separate studies, rivaling individuals may have combated each other with quick head blows, by slow pushes with the upper sides of their skulls, or by ramming each other head-on, using their horns as shock absorbers. The feeding habits of Carnotaurus remain unclear: some studies suggested the animal was able to hunt down very large prey such as sauropods, while other studies found it preyed mainly on relatively small animals. Its brain cavity suggests an acute sense of smell, while hearing and sight were less well developed. Carnotaurus was probably well adapted for running and was possibly one of the fastest large theropods.

In Prehistory
Although Carnotaurus was just added recently at the time of this writing, it is already established that it is a very good, viable and terrifying, (for things weaker than itself), predator in Prehistory. It has good damage, very good defense for its size, which would probably have to do with the red osteoderms on its back. It is currently the fastest animal in the game by far, as it easily leaves fast dinosaurs like Noasaurus in the dust. It is advised for Carno players to stick to hunting mainly Tier 3 & Tier 2 dinosaurs such as Dryosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Ceratosaurus and Utahraptor. This is because Carnotaurus mostly loses in confrontation to the larger Iguanodon and Pachyrhinosaurus. However, with the right tactics, it can certainly be done. Carnotaurus is the second least powerful Tier 4 dinosaur behind Baryonyx, although a fight between the two can be very close. Carnotaurus has a decent sense of smell in the game, and can smell dead bodies that are around 3000 studs (150 metres) away, which is pretty decent in comparison to other dinosaurs. It has great stamina too, to come with its already very high speed.
