What would yall rank cooperoceras

Also i say it as coup-pero-serass

It looks like it can retract inside and be fully protected making up for its slow speed and also it says it used to move at the sea floor but could go up like modern nautilus

Google ai overview says it fed on crustaceans and mollusks

Atleast B for the protection but could go lower due to the food and speed

Its not monitor lizard its juvenile komodo dragon

We put this debate to our YouTube community and the results are already dividing people pretty evenly.

The options we gave:

• Dinosaurs were more dangerous (Los dinosaurios eran más peligrosos)
• Modern predators are more dangerous (Los depredadores modernos son más peligrosos)
• It completely depends on the species (Depende completamente de la especie)

Our take is that the "depends on the species" option is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. A T-Rex and a house cat are both technically modern or prehistoric predators. The comparison only gets interesting when you get specific.

T-Rex bite force: 3,600 kg. Nile crocodile: around 1,700 kg. No modern land predator comes close to that raw crushing power.

But then you put a Velociraptor against a honey badger and suddenly the prehistoric advantage looks a lot less obvious.

What does this community think?

African elephants are supposed to be S-tier. Up until humans messed up the meta, they had an average of two children. Snails are S-tier. Again, only two children. Is the idea that higher-tier animals get higher populations before they saturate and can no longer reproduce above replacement? But there's always been vastly more snails than elephants. Sure there's a lot of species of snail, but plenty of individual snail species are more common than elephants.

So what do the tiers even mean? What's the point of picking a higher-tier build if you're not going to be any more successful?

My fav is croc

Tremors X real life

A robust population gets spread around the formation to start with

• Both animals are at their Prime and peak of their species.
• Takes place an Arby's parking lot.
• The winning animal gets to eat at Arby's for free.

In general in fight match ups people say the larger animal wins.

However at my bird feeders the smaller American Red Squirrel tends to drive off the lsrger Grey Squirrel

Shouldn't the deciding factor be more than just size?

i mean why is that why are porpoises the smallest living cetaceans?

Typosuchus Serizawa stands as a monument to speculative biology,reimagining Godzilla not as an impossible,mountain-sized titan of atomic magic,but as a grounded,biologically plausible apex predator shaped by real-world evolutionary constraints and the harsh physics of gravity.Its overall body proportions are strictly designed around mass distribution,trading the upright,humanoid stature of the cinematic monster for the horizontal,heavily anchored chassis of a massive theropod dinosaur.Unlike modern paleontology's sleek,agile carnivores,this creature leans heavily into a retro-dinosaur aesthetic where sheer bulk dictates every line of its anatomy.Its posture is low and lumbering,with a thick,columnar neck supporting an oversized,blocky skull designed for immense bite force.This massive head is counterbalanced by an incredibly dense,muscular & long tail that,instead of being held aloft,heavily drags or rests upon the ground to act as a crucial tripod-like support structure,distributing its immense weight and preventing it from toppling forward.The torso is exceptionally wide,barrel-chested,and low-slung,packed with dense muscle layers and internal organs optimized for a terrestrial lifestyle,supported by exceptionally thick,pillar-like hind legs that resemble elephantine stumps more than agile bird legs.The forelimbs,while still relatively short compared to its massive torso,are muscular and end in powerful,clawed digits meant for pinning down prey or anchoring itself rather than slashing.Structurally,its appearance rejects the smooth,clean lines of traditional movie monsters in favor of a hyper-textured,rugged hide.The skin is a mosaic of thick,scarred osteoderms,crocodilian scutes,and heavily keratinized armor plating that runs along its spine,mimicking the iconic dorsal fins of Godzilla but rendering them as realistic,jagged bone growths is an sail it's ansector once had along to back has distributed more evenly across the back by that got split into multiplie smaller sails to assist in flexibility,similiar to some other lizards,the skin in these regions can flush & flash different colors,similiar to chameleons who actually change color to express emotions or to intimidation.Blue is an rare color,and so as this azure radiance from color-changing and iridescent scales catching sunligth.The color palette consists of muted,earthy tones,muddy grays,charcoal blacks,and deep moss greens,allowing it to blend into prehistoric landscapes.Its face is a terrifying display of evolutionary utility,the jaws are rugged and uneven,with some front large,jagged,exposed teeths protruding outward even when the mouth is fully closed,lacking lips in a manner reminiscent of modern crocodiles or prehistoric marine reptiles.The eyes are small,sunken,and forward-facing,glinting with the calculating intelligence of a terrestrial apex hunter,completely omitting any supernatural glow.Every square inch of its form predatorly shows slow,deliberate power,prioritizing the sheer mechanical reality of supporting tons of muscle and bone on land over cinematic flashiness.

The overall sizes of Typosuchus Serizawa adult individuals is firstly by being 5.5 meters tall in neutral stance,7.7 meters tall when raised up on hing legs,length of 14 meters,carrying an skull of 1.7 meters in length,and carrying an hauling body mass of 16 metric tons of mass & tail.What this tower of power lacks in immense speed,it more than made up for it's size.Named for the divine king of the monsters from Greek Myth who terrified even the gods,this gigantic descendant of Arizonasaurus is over twice as massive as many theropods.Even with most of this species being about half it's size,they'd still handily outsize almost every predator who ever lived.Two critical differences from theropod dinosaurs are what allowed this to become the largest land predator that ever lived.Firstly,while it is chiefly bipedal,Typosuchus is capable of moving on all fours when it needs to move faster or navigate softer ground by distributing its weigth.Theropod dinosaurs largely aren't able to hold up their weigth on their wrists becuse they don't have a locking mechanism for load bearing,however an croc relative like this,won't have that restriction.Secondly,one of the major differences between Dinosaurs and their crocodile-alinged cousins is the shape of their foot,dinosaurs walk on just their toes,atleast most of them,having an digitgrade posture.Great for agility & climbing...but not the best at load bearing without a lot of adaptations.Crocodile cousins,meanwhile,walk on the whole fours,better distrubited their weigth.And the Typosuchus ansector species especially,has more than engouh time ro adapt weigth-bearing adaptations like an huge heel bone,and with huge column-like legs & feet that help bear this weigth,they also have the added benefit of further muffing the footsteps on its approach.Nad apart fron grappling & using those migthy jaws for attack,there's an extra suprise asdet they can bring forth,that reminds people of Dilophosaurus,then you migth know this never really happened in real life.However,there are some dinosaurs with projectile that our big dinosaur cousin migth also have evolved.Various types of seabirds,like albatrosses,have quite the unsigthly & unpredictable defense when they need to use it.By contracting certain muscles they can expel a sack of sticky,irritating bile as an type of projectile vomit.Typosuchus can do similiarly with a dark,tarry substance that can bind to skin and even damage eyesigths,if not flushed out.While mostly a defense for juveniles,even the adults can expel many gallons worth when they need to,and they have the heigth advantage to aim down to the faces of rival predators.
