Ceratosaurs (pronounced: /sɛræhtoʊˈsɑːrʌs/ ser-æh-to-SAR-us[3]) were vicious bipedal carnivorous dinosaurs from the jungles of Chult.[2]
Description
These dinosaurs could reach 30 feet (nine meters) in length and walked on two thick, muscular legs. Their body and tail were proportionally large. They had a curved neck with a lizard-like head, which had a distinctive nose horn and brow ridges and knobby bumps above their over-sized eyes. Their arms were tiny with four clawed fingers each.[2]
Behavior
Ceratosaurs hunted either alone or in pairs.[1] If in pairs, one would intentionally drive prey into the clutches of the other.[2]
Combat
Ceratosaurs used their speed and powerful jaws to their advantage. If they caught a creature in their mouths, they would shake it violently.[2]
History
Ceratosaurs, like most dinosaurs, originated in Chult.[2]
No one had ever successfully tamed a ceratosaur.[2]
