Spinosaurus is the largest of all known carnivorous animals, reaching lengths of over 15 metres - even larger than the infamous T-rex. They are thought to have hunted both terrestrial and aquatic prey, spending at least part of its life in the water. Comparable to large grizzly bears of today, these were generalised and opportunistic predators that could scavenge, hunt and fish. Its most distinctive feature is the large sail on its back, the function of which is still uncertain. Scientists have proposed several hypotheses including heat regulation, courtship displays or intimidation.
