Have You Seen Our Billboards Around San Antonio?
That is not a T-Rex but the Witte Acro!
Acrocanthosaurus atokensis! (ACK-roh-KAN-thoh-SAWR-us AT-oh-KEN-sus), meaning “high-spine lizard”, was a fierce predator up to 40 feet (12 meters) long and weighed about 2–3 tons. It was the largest meat-eating dinosaur in North America during the Early Cretaceous, 126 – 100 million years ago. Large footprints preserved in the limestone rocks of the San Antonio area show Acrocanthosaurus walked across an ancient shoreline when the ancestral Gulf of Mexico was beginning a long, slow, encroachment over Texas. Follow the Witte Acro on twitter for New Witte sneak peeks, dinosaur facts and humor!
