Carnotaurus on the Prowl

Carnotaurus was a fairly large caniverous Theropod dinosaur.  It lived in the Cretaceous Period in what is now South America around 70 million years ago.  It weighed up to 4,600 lbs or 2087 kg. It was around 30 feet or 9 meters long.  

Cartotaurus had horns on its head... eyebrow horns.  These were short horns and were probably for sexual display, not defense or offense.  Although I suppose it is possible that the males butt heads to fight for the right to mate with the females.  Carnotaurus had a rather short skull compacted to other carnivorous Theropod dinosaurs. 

Carnotaurus had short arms with 4 fingers and long slender legs.  It probably had a fast pace when it ran after prey.  Since Cartotaurus lived in South America, it never faced off against the well-known Tyrannosaurs from North America... like Daspetosaurus, Albertosaurus, or Tyrannosaurus rex.
