The analytical results show that this new dinosaur body length is about 6m, nearly 2m high and in the amount of about 4.5 tons.

Dr. Francisco Ortega, a professor of fossil studies at the Spanish National University, said the skeleton he discovered was a completely new species of carcharodontosaurid carnivorous dinosaurs. This is also considered the most intact dinosaur fossil excavated in Europe.

According to scientific studies, carnivorous dinosaurs are thought to live in the five equations. Therefore, this new discovery by Spanish scientists shows a diverse evolution as well as the ability to adapt to the different habitats of carnivorous dinosaurs.

Professor Francisco Ortega also said that the Concavenator corcovatus, never discovered before, has two very recognizable traits that have a hump on its back like camels and a lot of feathers on the legs Previously like the way feathers of birds.

' The Carcharodontosaurs species are thought to be the largest carnivorous dinosaurs and the evolutionary history of this species is as positive as we thought previously. The hunchback dinosaur we just discovered may be an evolutionary branch of the Carcharodontosaurs , 'Professor Francisco Ortega said.

The team said Concavenator corcovatus hunchback dinosaurs could be a combination of carnivorous dinosaurs and a flying dinosaur. The food of this hunchback dinosaur is known as reptiles and smaller dinosaurs.
