Gorgosaurus
Click here for more Gorgosaurus Pictures
Gorgosaurus was a carnivore (meat-eater) that lived in North America
during the late Cretaceous period,
about 76 to 68 million years ago.
It is very similar to its close relative,
Albertosaurus.
Gorgosaurus was about 30 feet (9 meters) long, 9 feet (2.7 meters) tall, and probably weighed about 2.5 tons.
The name Gorgosaurus means "Gorgon lizard".
The word Gorgon refers to Greek myth: the Gorgons were three sisters with
snakes for hair, who turned people who looked at them to stone.
Gorgosaurus was first described by
Lawrence Lambe in
1914.
