Baryonyx walkeri feasting on the carrion of Iguanodon bernissartensis, undisturbed by the crocodile, Goniopholis cressidens. Hungry adolescent in the background knows better to keep his distance.

Baryonyx. What?
tuomaskoivurinne Traditional Artist
Cannibal?
tuomaskoivurinne Traditional Artist
Yes, I know what a cannibal is. Please read the caption, Baryonyx is not eating another Baryonyx.

When it comes to predators, it's not like they are happy to share...
tuomaskoivurinne Traditional Artist
There's no way we can ever answer that. Big predators (especially solitary ones) avoid confrontation, as it consumes energy and might have fatal consequences.
And it's not like vultures are "sharing" the dead zebra buffet on the savannah in a social behavior sense. They just eat what they can, before they have to fight against other scavengers arriving at the scene.

Beautiful work!
I bet either the grownup or the croc made the kill, but it matters not: Spinosaurs will go after land prey when need be, and when they do.. nothing gets in their way
the baryonyx is bein one tough nut. His foot is pretty much is chomped off by the crocodile and he is like"problem?"
tuomaskoivurinne Traditional Artist
Mmm... I see what you mean, but his leg is not being "chomped off". The meat in Goniopholis's jaws is from the carcass. Bary's leg is behind the head. I see that it looks a bit odd, thanks for pointing that out...
o thanks for clearing it up got the wrong picture lolz thanks
tuomaskoivurinne Traditional Artist
I think Bary would react somehow, if its leg would be chewed like that...

Nice work. I love Baryonyx.
The Goniopholis looks pretty damn unafraid! But then again, they have nothing to fear!
