Maip Macrothorax: Cold Killer of Patagonia | Paleoart Dinosaur Profile

Today we're stepping away from Kaimere to examine a real animal that was just announced: Maip macrothorax, a giant robust megaraptoran from Late Cretaceous Argentina. Although not found in Kaimere, it serves as an unexpected precedent for the giant megaraptorans of my speculative biology project and I wanted to take a few minutes to talk about this fascinating animal!
