This is the segment that takes place in Mexico where The Lambeosaurus kicks tyrannosaur butt.

Objections? ideas?

Update: No longer Lambeosaurus segment. It now takes place in the Kaiparowits formation.

Said Tyrannosaur would be Teratophoneus, which is half the size of "Lambeosaurus" laticaudus.

Hmmm.........perhaps The Teratophoneus attacks a juvenile Lambeosaurus?

Then the adult bull, pumped by testosterone, charges the Teratophoneus and kicks the **** outta it.

Considering its an alluvial floodplain, we should also feature some non-dinosaur creatures too; gar, bowfin, sturgeon, and crocodilians come to mind. IDK about the story however.

The story, as of this writing, is about a sub-adult Teratophoneus, and ends with him getting his ass handed to him by a Parasaurolophus.

What about including the injury on Talos´ foot? While the popular theory is that it was injured while fighting its prey, we could go for the more mundane possibilty that it just trips on a log.

Maybe it could trip during a ceratopsian stampede, adding a little bit drama. It doesn´t break its leg, so it could still be lucky enough to get back on its feet and run away before being trampled down.

The Talos foot injury was, IIRC, actually brought up way back when this was just something being discussed on a chatbox. It'll probably make it into the final story in some form, even if it doesn't receive major focus.
