Siats meekerorum Names Greatest Land Predator Ever

This dinosaur makes even the T-Rex's of his era seem like a hyena to a lion.

Palaeontologists on Friday announced they had uncovered the remains of one of the greatest land predators ever -- a nine-metre (30-foot) four-tonne dinosaur that stalked the planet 100 million years ago.

The newly-discovered species has been called Siats meekerorum, whose first name honours a cannibalistic monster in the mythology of the Native American Ute people.

That is kind of a goofy name for such a massive predator that lived 30 million years before the largest T-rex's came onto the scene. The time periods that these animals lived were just mind boggling. It would be very interesting to see how humans would be doing in 100 million years.
