Description

this is part of the fallow earth speculative fauna

True Macrotyrants are Fallow Earth's largest predators, the biggest species (
Macrotyrannus imperator) can grow up to 14m long, 4,6m tall and weighs about 11,000-13,000kg on average. Although they are more intelligent than their ancestors they don't compare to Glaciatyrannines, being about as smart as a chicken.

But that is not all that makes them interesting, they are also the only known theropods to have used headbutting for hunting, and their brow- and nasal crests have adapted to deal with it. The crests have become much more robust and have a flat surface on top for which to hit their prefered prey, American Indricotheres, the tyrants use the headbutting to knock over the creatures and make killing them easier.
