The Acrocanthosaurus was an extremley large lizard in the "therapod" family. Unlinke other therapods, this dino had high spines on its Vertebrae. It reached up to possibly 11.5 meters (38 feet) and an estimated weight of 5 to 6 tonnes. Living in the cretaceus period this lizard roamed the desert and mountains, totally dominating all prey in its path. The males of this species had slightly larger spines differing from the females. Scientists' studies of its brain had showed that this treeifying creature had a highly developd sense of smell. As a close relative of the well-known Carchardontasaurus, they had both lived in early Africa. This devil of Mesozic era rivaled with many creatures of similar size, and was beleived to be the biggest therapod ever, before the evolution of the Tyrannasaurus Rex.
