According to reports, experts estimate that this dinosaur was 10 meters long and weighed 5 tons, with a head measuring 1.15 meters. Its 10-centimeter teeth were as sharp as blades, indicating that other large dinosaurs were also its prey.

The report states that scientists initially thought this dinosaur belonged to the Torvosaurus that once lived in North America, but after analyzing the unearthed skeletal and tooth fossils, they determined it was a new species and named it "Torvosaurus gurneyi."
