In this episode, we dive into the fascinating story of Saurophaganax, one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs of the Late Jurassic. Often overshadowed by its close relative Allosaurus, Saurophaganax has sparked debates among paleontologists—was it a distinct genus or just a massive species of Allosaurus, sometimes called Allosaurus anax? Join us as we discuss its role as an apex predator, and uncover the mysteries behind its name and identity.
