Spinosaurus was a giant meat eater. Some scientists say that it used its' sail to cool itself down during heatwaves. It would have lived at the end of the Jurassic and the start of the Cretaceous, about the same time as the tyrannosaurus. The Spinosaurus was bigger than the T-Rex and probably more fierce.

Jurassic Park
Jurassic Park is a film about dinosaurs. When John Hammond creates clone dinosaurs he invites Dr Allen Grant and Ellie Settler, two paleontologists, and a scientist called Ian to see them. But it all goes wrong when one of John's staff turns off all the power. Allen Grant and John's two grandchildren experience many things like : a hungry Brachiosaurus, killer raptors, flocking herd of Gallimimus and a T-Rex that saves the day. This is a beautiful film with lots of horror. Certainly a film for the record books.

Dino Facts
Thanks to Eve for asking my first three questions. I shall try to answer them.
1) The parent that sat on the eggs was the female only, except Ankylosaurus, it never sat on the eggs because it might have crushed them.
2) The picture is of a Mother T-Rex looking after it's young, Where is the male? I know it's gone out hunting, is that true...? Wrong, after the clutch of eggs have been laid the female chases off the male. Apart from that all Dino's are good parents, but years back Coelphysis have been thought to have eaten there young. But scientists have discovered that it may have been crocodiles they were eating.
3) Dinosaurs were in the United Kingdom but only a few of them have been identified. However, the Isle of Wight has the most fossils of any place in Europe.

The Jurassic
The Jurassic was not the first period for the dinosaurs. But it was deadly time. The time when the beasts start to form. Stegosaurus, Allosaurus, pterasals. Not all the beasts lived in that time beasts like t-Rex and Albertosaurus lived in the Cretaceous.
Dimetrodon
Dimetrodon was not actualy a dinosaur. Although it looked like one it was not. It was a prehistoric creature that passed as a dinosaur. It was a ground creature and was a carnivore that killed small bugs and dinosaurs. It lived near the start of the dinosaurs so it was not all ways a killer of dinosaurs.
