A tired tyrant Source The acrocanthosaurus lives in arid environments but can adapt to any environment it is thrown into. They have no natural predators, and it isn't hard to see why. Acrocanthosaurus, like its cousin Giganotosaurus, is adept at hunting anything that moves, from medium sized mammals to the titan sized sauropods, anything is on the menu. Acros will gang up to attack larger sauropods by taking chunks out, bleeding the giants to death for a feast. Acros are often more feared than Tyrannosaurus, as Acrocanthosaurus can use its massive size to plow through limestone walls with ease. The Acro will fight to the death and rarely backs down, having an extraordinary rush of adrenaline and testosterone when injured enough, allowing it to take its attackers down twice as fast.
