HMMMMMM

Sauropod Killer vs Giant Elephant that's smaller than most Sauropods

I WONDER WHO WILL WIN?

[dinosauria101]

I mean, I wouldn't call this a onesided slaughterfest, but I do agree the allosaurs win. Numbers, jaws, axebites, and agility are all key here.

Allosaurus easily takes down sauropods, so a whole pack like this won't have much trouble taking on an elephant that is a big as some of the smaller sauropods.
