Jurassic Park Rush- Albertasaurus Documentary part 1
By TREX...rage!!
Albertosaurus sarcophagus (flesh-eating Alberta lizard)
Night closes in upon a semi tropical landscape in the depths of a shallow valley. The stocky mountains surrounding the valley cast great luminous shadows across the many animals mulling about in the late of day. All the herbivores had gorged themselves with the greenery expanses all about the island. The last of the beautiful Brachiosaur trumpeting is heard as a display of stars peeked out of the hued sky. At last, the dead of night is heard all around as the stars shine down upon the island.
At night, the tranquil forest scene is replaced with ominous shadows and eerie trees. Nighttime crickets start chirping and other unearthly sounds can be heard. A roar rents the air as two threatening shapes glide through the forest. One of the animals comes out into the clearing where the herbivores had once been. It is a male Albertosaurus sarcophagus.
Albertosaurs are found in the Tyrannosaurid family along with other cousins such as Tyrannosaurus rex or Tarbosaurus bataar. Albertasaurs are probably known best as the cousins of the famous T.rex. They weigh in at anywhere from 2 to 4 tons and stand at about 11-12 feet in height and 28-35 feet in length. They have original Tyrannosaurid teeth with cube-like serrations. They probably could reach speeds of up to 25-30 m/h. They are fast and formidable predators with bone crushing jaws to put an end to their prey.
The Albertasaur grunts as he makes way for another dinosaur to come out of the shadows of the trees. This is a female Albertasaurus. Both these animals range 32-34 feet in length and 3-3.5 tons each. There is a low chirping behind them as a smaller dinosaur no taller than a human teen comes out also. This is a baby Albertosaurus no less than 2 weeks old. It’s ruffled with slight downy feathers on top its neck and back. The baby is clumsy and stumbles around. The female Albertosaur goes back towards the trees and picks up the baby in its mouth. She carefully places the baby in a wedge in a tree 10 feet off the ground. The baby is restless but the parent quiets it down by grunting reassuringly. The parent goes back to join the male Albertosaur as they scan the valley. They are picking a liable meal. They could clearly see a great herd of Brachiosaurs, but they were too big. A young or sick one wasn’t seen. They scanned some more to see a small group of Parasaurs drinking from the river. There were 4 in all and one of them was old and sick. With the choice made, the Albertasaurs wheeled off to the jungle to right of them. They paced themselves through the forest without making anything more than the slight thumps of their feet. They kept their eyes on the Parasaurs the whole while. They kept on going until they reached the closest part of the forest to the river and Parasaurs. Now they were located behind the drinking Parasaurs. If they charged them now, the Parasaurs would only be able to go into the river or thick forest where they wouldn’t be able to navigate easily. Their was another group of Parasaurs much farther downstream, and downwind from them. Quietly, the Albertosaurs got ready for the ambush. Without a sound they walked out of the forest. They moved slowly towards the Parasaurs without making a sound. When they were within 100 meters, they sprinted. The Parasaurs heard them and let out tremendous calls from their crests. They started to scatter in all directions. The old one wasn’t very fast and decided to try to run to the forest instead of swim. The Albertosaurs broke off from the other Parasaurs and followed the old one down a hill to the forest. As the Parasaur entered the forest, it couldn’t sprint any longer. It started to weave in and out of the trees as best could. But the Albertosaurs were catching up. They were more used to trees than the Parasaur was, and they were gaining very fast. With one last turn around a huge tree, the male Albertasaur was able to clamp down on the Parasaurs thigh. The Parasaur went sprawling to the ground shattering her left forearm in the process. The female Albertosaur came and finished the Parasaur with a bite to the upper neck, crushing the bones in the neck. The Parasaur instantly went limp.
