Baryonyx

Baryonyx was a member of the spinosauridae family. It was adapted to eating fish, and it lived in the Cretaceous time period. Its name means “heavy-claw”. Baryonyx was about the size of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. All spinosaurs had a sail on their back, including Baryonyx. All spinosaurs also had different sized teeth, and a ridge over the eyes at the end of its narrow snout. They had a powerful sense of smell to find fish. Their claws and teeth helped to grip the slippery fish so their prey couldn’t escape.
