Found this image on Google might help people make up their mind. In water id give this to the Orca but on land Spinosaurus clearly has the advanatge.

Yeah, nice chart. But wouldn't average vs average be a bit closer to parity? Killer whales are some 5 tons average

Well then what are you saying is the average size for Spinosaurus ? We really can't say what the average is for any theropod we don't have enough specimens for animals that existed for millions of years we can only really guess so if we use the Spinosaurus specimen FSAC-kk-11888 its around 11.3 meters long and around 3.6 tons www.deviantart.com/franoys/art/Spinosaurus-aegyptiacus-skeletal-FSAC-kk-11888-706404751 so the Orca would still have a decent weight advanatge il try find a size comparison for an Orca and FSAC but no body really uses that specimen because its not huge.

I thought the most widely accepted size range was 6.4-7.5 tons? We may not have many adults, but they are most likely to be average, so a mean of 7 tons I think isn't too unreasonable for a guess

Comparison for the Spinosaurus specimens we have and going from this chart i would not say MSNM V4047 is an average sized animal we can't really be sure when it comes to Spinosaurus but still.

Verdugo Did you make that previous one? Looks kinda like it I only made this one I didn't make any of the others. The Orca is my scale is 8 m (measured in a straight line). I want it represent a large male but a not a freak/record sized specimen.
