Description
Name : Metriacanthosaurus parkeri
Codename: "Dragon"
Meaning: moderately spined lizard
Lengh:up to 8 metres
weight: up to 2 tons
diet: meat
period: Jurassic
Agressiveness: 100%-extremely dangerous

Being among the first dinosaurs that were bred, this fearsome carnivore from england, was also present in the first park. Metriacanthosaurus was a dinosaur, with an unpredictable behaviour, and only two were bred for the park on Nublar. Metriacanthosaurus is a sinraptorid, a little known subfamily of the allosaurids. Its a big carnivore with a lenght of up to 8 metres. despite this, its very fast and can even leap very well. His jaws are filled with razorsharp teeth and his back carriesa low sail that has an orange colour . Large spikes or quills stick out from his "sail" from the neck to the tailtip which gave him the codename dragon. Metriacanthosaurus has powerful arms with big claws and his agressivenesmade him to one of the most feared carnivores of the park. They seem to be very agressive to carnotaurus, but surprisingly, they can live together with Megalosaurus, another big carnivore cloned by inGen, without killing each other. "metris" as they were called by the keepers due to their long name, live solitary and hunt everything that is smaller than them but they dont hesitate to attack prey that is bigger than them as well. Metriacanthosaurus is a dinosaur, that isnt seen very often. They live in forest areas as well as in the savannah like areas of the islands. An interesting fact is, that Metriacanthosaurus can produce lyisin, although all the other dinosaurs were genetically altered not to produce this substance themselves. Metriacanthosaurus has a high metabolism and is a very active animal. Males are slightly smaller than females. Males have a blue throat and red scales above the eye, the females not. Their coloration is yellow with brwn stripes. Metriacanthosaurus has been discribed by keepers as very noisy. Although only 2 were cloned for nublar, several others were cloned for later parks. After the 1993 incident, it was thought that all dinosaurs were dead but the teams that had to clean the area were surprised as they met this dinosaur still alive. However this surprise turned out to be fatal for 3 of the team. The two animals were caught and brought to isla sorna. Now, Metriacanthosaurus are present on evry island of la cinco muertes, except for side D.
