Carcharodontosaurus

Pleasing Tourists
"Despite its being a four-star dinosaur, mainstream tourists will not have heard even a whisper of Carcharodontosaurus (and you'd remember, if you heard a name like that). Thrill seekers want to see bloodshed, so let the Carcharadontosaurus munch on smaller dinosaurs like Gallimimus, Dryosaurus, and Styracosaurus. Dino nerds won't be content with much. You have to pair a Carcharadontosaurus with an Acrocanthosaurus, Ouranosaurus or Spinosaurus to be historically accurate." ~Prima's Official Strategy Guide
