Carnotaurus was a large theropod dinosaur that lived in South America during the Late Cretaceous period, around 72-69.9 million years ago. It was a carnivore with bull-like horns and could grow up to 25 feet long. Studies have found that Carnotaurus may have hunted large prey like sauropods or smaller animals. It was well-adapted for running and had a top speed estimated between 30-35 mph, faster than humans but not as fast as ostriches. The skull was short and deep with numerous holes and spikes on the facial bones.
