Rank the Roar: Discover the Best Dino
To find the "best" dinosaur I first had to choose which group I should do. I chose to do Land Carnivores as they are the most well known and there are only about 100-200 that are of them. I had to chose 4 categorys to judge them on: Speed, Size (Length), Bite force and Weight. These rankings are NOT based on opinion and I hope you have your own rankings! To narrow down which dinosaurs to choose, I focused on the top 15 dinosaurs in each category. I used the following point system: first: 5 points, second: 4, and so on until sixth: 0.5 points and seventh: 0.2 points. Have fun uncovering the best Dinos!
Did you know that there are only about 150-250 named carnivorus dinosaurs?
Did you know that the T-Rex has 12800 pounds of force in its bite which is 100x the force of a human
Only 1% of Dinosaurs are carnivors
Apex Predators

2nd Gianotosaurus
The Gianotosaurus is not a well known dinosaur but is one of the best. It's the runner up in every category exept speed.
Points: 12
3rd Spinosaurus
Did you know that the largest carnivorous dinosaur is the Spinosaurus which is 17 meters (56 feet)
Microraptor is the smallest carnivorous dinosaur, mesuring 1.7-2.8 feet and weighing between 14 and 25 oz.
The Spinosaurus is the only amphibious dinosaur on this list. While not super fast, the Spinosaurus is the fastest of the top 3 contenders. It chases its prey in the water then comes out of the water to grab its prey and drown it.
