Because Tyrannosaurus rex gets all the free publicity. Unfair to poor Epanterias amplexus. It has been advised on good authority that Epanterias is a much better looking large size carnivore than T-Rex. Said authority unfortunately was a sock puppet on Wikipedia.
Epanterias amplexus is a species of theropod dinosaur described by Edward Drinker Cope in 1878 [1]. Epanterias was a speices of allosaur, and is considered by most paleontologists to be a species of Allosaurus rather than a separate genus. Epanterias may have rivaled Tyrannosaurus rex in size or exceeded it, with length estimates of around 13 or 14 meters.[2].
[edit] Person of the year
Epanterias is very proud to have been selected as the 2006 Time (magazine) Person of the Year.[1]
