Saurophaganax ("lizard eating master") is a genus of theropod dinosaur. Saurophaganax may be an extremely big allosaur. This dinosaur is larger than allosaurus and slightly longer than tyrannosaurus this clearly is a huge meat-eater, possibly reaching 43 feet (13 m) long and 16.5 feet (5m) high . Very little of its fossilized bones have been found so scientists are still deciding what to call this dinosaur.
