Australia's Unique Dinosaurs

Yutyrannus · September 25, 2012, 02:27:59 AM

I recently saw a short documentary called Australia's Unique Dinosaurs. It was very cool but only 11 minutes long

! It had a VERY cool Australovenator design which I will post here. It talks about Diamintinosaurus, Australovenator, and an unnamed large theropod know from only a tooth and is estimated to have been even bigger than Australovenator. You can find it on YouTube if you want to watch it.

I have been wanting to see it so bad! Could you post a link???

I believe that the giant dinosaur they talk about is Ridge Ripper, a huge Neovenatorid from Australia. Rapator, another giant neovenatorid, I believe to be the same thing as Ridge Ripper.
Ugh, I'm starting to sound like Spock...

That Australovenator is definitely the work of Travis Tischler. Among other things he was responsible for the reconstructions of Australovenator, Diamantinasaurus and Wintonatitan that were included in articles about their discovery.

I would also recommend checking out a recent documentary called 'Australia: A Time Traveller's Guide', the dinosaur-centric third episode of which features a lot of Tischler's designs.

I wanna see them but can't find any videos.

Yeah, there's no episodes of it on Youtube, just the ads. Someone uploaded the first episode but it seems to have been taken down. The official site has some clips.
