Ceratosaurus

Ceratosaurus (Keh-RAT-oh-sore-us) which means "horned lizard", goes with out saying he had 3 horns one above each eye  and one above his nose. He weighed bout 2 tons and was about 20 feet tall.  He used his incredibly strong and flexible tail to swim after its prey like a giant fish, crocodiles, and alligators.  They also like to dine on plant-eaters like the iguandons, stegosaurus, and even the giant sauropods. It is not know if they hunted in groups or by themselves.

Ceratosaurus lived in is USA, Africa, and Tanzania during the Late Jurassic Period (159-144 million years ago). Ceratosaurus is slightly smaller then its rival Allosaurus but is still a fierce meat-eating hunter.  http://www.history.com/shows/jurassic-fight-club-archived/interactives/dinopedia
