The first megatheropod?

Description

Un dilofosaurio colosal devora a un Massospondylus, mientras otros coelofisoideos mas pequeños esperan las sobras. Doodle inspirado en el descubrimiento en Sudáfrica de las huellas de un terópodo enorme, al que se calculan unos 9 metros de longitud (las huellas miden casi 60 cms de longitud y 50 de ancho). Ésto convierte a "Kayentapus ambrokhholohali" en el megaterópodo mas antiguo del que se tiene evidencia, ya que alcanzó un tamaño similar al de los tiranosaurios como Albertosaurus y Daspletosaurus, pero hace 200 millones de años, a principios del Jurásico. Sin restos del esqueleto es imposible saber cómo se veia el animal, pero se supone que Kayentapus es algo similar a un dilofosaurio. ¡Quien sabe! Gracias a :iconkrajax: por informarme de su existencia. 

A colossal dilophosaur devours a Massospondylus, as other, smaller coelophysoids wait for the scraps. Doodle inspired by the discovery of a gigantic theropod's footprints in South Africa. The prints were over half a meter wide and almost 60 cms long, and the animal may have been up to 9 meters long. This makes "Kayentapus ambrokholohali" the oldest megatheropod of which we have evidence, as it would've been as large as tyrannosaurs like Albertosaurus and Daspletosaurus, but lived 200 million years ago, during the early Jurassic. Without skeletal remains its appearance remains unknown, but Kayentapus is traditionally thought to be something similar to Dilophosaurus. Who knows! Thanks to :iconkrajax: for letting me know about it. :B

From what I have gathered, Kayentapus is synonymous with Grallator. I could be wrong.
