Spinosaurus Among the Delta Roots
The picture places Spinosaurus in a river delta surrounded by visible mangrove roots. The dinosaur’s long jaws and the tall sail along its back stand out against the waterways and tangled root system. This watery environment suits current scientific ideas that Spinosaurus spent considerable time around rivers and fed on aquatic as well as land animals.
Remarkable Facts About River Deltas and Mangroves
A river delta develops where flowing water slows near its outlet and deposits carried sediment. Its channels can shift as layers of mud and sand build outward. Mangrove roots help hold sediment in place, soften the force of waves, and provide shelter for many young aquatic animals in modern coastal habitats.
Natural Colors of Spinosaurus and the Delta
- Spinosaurus skin: the precise color is unknown; olive, brown, gray, or sandy tones are plausible
- Back sail: its colors are unknown and may have contrasted with the body if it was used for display
- Jaws and teeth: muted skin tones around the jaws, with ivory or cream teeth
- Mangrove roots: brown, reddish brown, or gray-brown
- Delta water: muddy brown, greenish, blue-gray, or clear depending on sediment and reflected light
