Ontdekking
Skorpiovenator was named in 2008 by Juan Canale and his team. The skeleton was found on a farm in Patagonia, Argentina, owned by Manuel Bustingorry.41
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure exactly how the bumps and ridges on its skull were used, but they might have helped absorb shock during head-butting or display.1
