Carcharodontosaurus beside a dried-up river
The scene centers on Carcharodontosaurus walking through a riverbed from which the water has disappeared. The exposed channel provides the setting for this huge carnivorous dinosaur and suggests a period of severe dryness. Only the predator and the dried river environment are confirmed, so no living plants, prey, or flowing water are implied.
Interesting facts about Carcharodontosaurus
Carcharodontosaurus inhabited northern Africa during the Cretaceous, when the region included extensive river systems as well as seasonally dry areas. Its name means “shark-toothed lizard,” referring to the flattened, serrated shape of its teeth rather than to any close relationship with sharks. A riverbed may dry out when seasonal rainfall declines or when a river changes its course.
