Geocache Description:

This is the third in a series called Dinocaches.I like dinosaurs. Each cache should have some sort of very cheaply made plastic dinosaur inside. Please leave the dinosaur in the container. The dinosaur in this cache is a Spinosaurus. His name is Steve. Steve is bigger than all the other carnivorous dinosaurs, even Ted. Steve is a monster. He probably just ate fish though. Feel free to leave a friend for Steve (he may eat them though).


 


• The Spinosaurus lived around 100 million years ago in what is now North Africa. • The name Spinosaurus means ‘spine lizard’. • Fossils of the Spinosaurus were first found in Egypt around 1910. • The Spinosaurus was larger than the Tyrannosaurus Rex and may have been the largest carnivorous (meat eating) dinosaur ever. • Studies estimate that it was around 15 metres (49 feet) in length and weighed anywhere between 7 to 20 tons. • The Spinosaurus featured distinctive spines which grew over 1.5 metres (5 feet) long. • The Spinosaurus had a long, thin skull. • While the Spinosaurus usually walked on two legs, studies suggest that it may have occasionally crouched on all four. • Spinosaurus featured in the popular movie Jurassic Park 3, but popular doesn't mean good!
