DATE: January 24‚ 2013 NAME: Carl Kallies SCIENCE REPORT: Dinosaurs - Spinosaurus The Spinosaurus is my favorite of all the dinosaurs. It was made famous in the movie Jurassic Park 3‚ one of my favorite movies. Scientists estimate Spinosaurus to be 40 to 56 feet or 12 to 17 meters from head to tail. Spinosaurus’ body looks a lot like that of T-Rex‚ but there are a couple of obvious differences. Of course‚ T-Rex didn’t carry that large sail-like fins made of 6-foot spines. And the front arms
