Giant stork-like dinosaur Spinosaurus 'caught fish from shoreline'


Giant carnivorous dinosaur Spinosaurus snatched fish from the shoreline while also hunting for small prey on land, according to a new study into its behaviour. They found it wasn't well adapted to the life aquatic and was more like a 'giant heron or stork' stalking the shoreline for fish and small land prey animals. Life reconstruction of a Spinosaurus wading in the water and fishing. 'Our findings suggest that the wading idea is much better supported, even if it is slightly less exciting,' Hone explained. He said the Spinosaurus was 'unlike anything alive today', adding that 'trying to understand its ecology will always be difficult.'
