JURASSIC PARK Los Archivos Perdidos
Allosaurus
Epoca: Jurasico tardio, hace 150 millones de años
Distribucion: Norteamerica y Europa
Longitud: Hasta 12 metros
Peso: 3.5 toneladas
Dieta: Carnivoro
Allosaurus fue el depredador supremo a finales del periodo Jurásico, y aunque en Jurassic Park fue opacado hasta cierto punto por el T-Rex, su fuerza y ferocidad impresionaron a todos los que llegaron a verlo.
Este gran carnivoro suele cazar solo o en parejas, pero vive en "guaridas" comunales, usualmente en algun claro de la jungla. Es facil encontrar estas guaridas, ya que despiden un fuerte olor a carne podrida, pues los Allosaurus suelen llevar trozos de carne o incluso presas enteras para alimentar a sus crias.
Los Allosaurus son bastante rapidos y pueden atacar a una velocidad de 60 kilometros por hora en distancias cortas. Los cuidadores de Jurassic Park apenas podian creerlo cuando descubrieron que a pesar de su enorme tamaño y peso, los Allosaurus eran capaces de saltar. Esto preocupó sobremanera a los directores del parque, que por un corto periodo consideraron eliminar al Allosaurus de la gira.
Los Allosaurus se reconocen facilmente por las crestas vivamente coloreadas sobre los ojos y el hocico; son mas grandes en los machos, aunque las hembras suelen ser de mayor tamaño. Debido a que estas pueden ser muy agresivas, y a que esta especie tiende al canibalismo cuando la comida escasea, los machos producen una sustancia con una glandula cerca de sus ojos; esta glandula contiene feromonas especiales que inhiben la agresividad de la hembra hasta cierto punto. Por desgracia, la sustancia tambien incrementa la ferocidad de los machos, que durante la epoca de apareamiento son aun mas peligrosos que de costumbre. Durante esta epoca, las peleas entre Allosaurus son frecuentes y extremadamente violentas.
TRIVIA: Los cientificos de Jurassic Park documentaron muy bien el asombroso "factor de curacion" del Allosaurus, que le permite sobrevivir a heridas y golpes que matarian a otros animales; la velocidad con que sus heridas cicatrizaban tambien era extraordinaria. Se extrajeron muchas muestras de sangre a los Allosaurus del parque para encontrar la clave de este factor de curacion; no obstante, los resultados de estos estudios fueron celosamente guardados en secreto.
EXTREMADAMENTE PELIGROSO!


JURASSIC PARK The Lost Files
Allosaurus
Age: Late Jurassic, 150 mya
Range: North America and Europe
Length: Up to 12 meters
Weight: 3.5 tons
Diet: Carnivore
Allosaurus was the supreme predator during the end of the Jurassic, and although it was somewhat overshadowed by T-Rex in Jurassic Park, its strength and ferocity impressed all those who got the chance to see it.
This large carnivore hunts alone of in pairs, but lives in comunal "lairs", usually some large clearing in the jungle. It is easy to find one of these lairs due to the stench they produce; this is because the Allosaurus often drag large pieces of meat or even complete carcasses to the lair in order to feed their young.
Allosaurus is a fast animal, it can attack at a speed of 60 kms p/h in short distances. The Jurassic Park keepers could barely believe it when they discovered that, despite their inmense size and weight, Allosaurus was able to leap. This worried the Park's managers, and for a while, they considered to eliminate Allosaurus from the tour. Allosaurus is easily recognized due to the brightly colored crests on its snout and over the eyes; these are bigger in males, although females are usually larger. Since females can be very aggressive, and since Allosaurus is highly cannibalistic when food is scarce, males produce a substance with a gland near their eyes; this substance contains special pheromones that inhibit the female's aggressivity. Unfortunately, this substance also increases the males' ferocity, so during mating season they are even more dangerous than usual. During this season, fights among Allosaurus are frequent and extremely violent.
TRIVIA: The Jurassic Park scientists studied the amazing "healing factor" of Allosaurus, which allows it to survive blows and injuries that would kill other animals; the speed at which the wounds healed was also extraordinary. Many blood samples were taken from the Park's Allosaurus to find the key of this healing factor. However, the results of this study were jealously kept as a secret.
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!

Nice work on your common bladetooth. So these Jurassic predators are very violent and get into fights a lot, huh? If that's the case, wouldn't they have scars, teeth & talon marks on their bodies? 'Cause I don't see such marks.
Their incredible healing factor is so developed, and wounds heal so well, that they have less scars than we would expect. :)
