Giganotosaurus runs the gauntlet

[dinosauria101]

An 8 ton Giganotosaurus runs the gauntlet. How far do they get?


Round 1: 8 Smilodon fatalis, 220 kg each


Round 2: 1 woolly mammoth, 5 tons


Round 3: 1 American mastodon, 7 tons


Round 4: 8 Utahraptors, 600 kg each


Round 5: 1 T rex, 8 tons


Round 6: 1 Triceratops, 12 tons

Round 5 is very close, it might stop there. If it doesn't, it definitely stops at round 6, especially in light of recent evidence on theropod agility which shows carnosaurs were ill equipped to take on ceratopsians.

I definitely agree with you there. Round 5 is 50/50 IMO and Giganotosaurus could very well stop at it.
Round 4 is also close IMO, maybe a 55/45 win for Giganotosaurus.
And yeah, at Round 6, Triceratops stops Giganotosaurus in its tracks.
