Fossils of primitive cousins of iconic meat-eating dinosaur Tyrannosaurus rex have been discovered by scientists in North Africa.
The bones belong to two new dinosaur species from a species called Abelisauridae.
These animals that had short, bulldog snouts and even shorter arms.
These carnivorous dinosaurs were counterparts to the tyrannosaurs of the Northern Hemisphere.
They lived during the latter part of the Cretaceous period which ended with a giant asteroid impact 66 million years ago that wiped out much life on Earth.
Two new species of dinosaur were found in Morocco, just outside of Casablanca.
One species, found near the town of Sidi Daoui, is represented by a foot bone from a predator about two and a half metres long.
The other, from nearby Sidi Chennane, is the shin bone of a carnivore that grew to around five metres in length.
The finds show that Morocco was home to diverse dinosaur species just before the asteroid extinction known as the Cretaceous-Paleogene crisis.

*Full story: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/qg6d
Londoners were amazed to see a 30 foot long T.rex today, strapped to a flatbed truck, apparently taking the final journey to its autopsy. Bearing a giant toe tag and only partially covered by blood-soaked sheets, the drooling prehistoric beast stunned and delighted thousands of witnesses as it took a scenic route through the busy streets from 7am this morning, with only rush hour standing between the dinosaur and its dissection. Causing intrigue from the streets of Brixton, through Central London and passing the Houses of Parliament, Trafalgar Square, London Bridge and Buckingham Palace along the way, the T. rex triggered mass speculation on social media all morning before National Geographic Channel revealed it was a stunt to promote the broadcast of two-hour special T. rex Autopsy this Sunday evening at 8pm.

Surprised commuters
Full-size Tyrannosaurus Rex model transported through streets to promote T.Rex Autopsy TV show, London, Britain - 01 Jun 2015
Commuters in London got a shock today when a full-size T.Rex was transported through the streets of the Capital. Bemused passers-by watched as the giant 30ft long model, which was partially covered by a blood stained operating sheet, was driven past landmarks such as the Big Ben and the London Eye. The prehistoric beast was promoting the broadcast of the two-hour special T.Rex Autopsy this Sunday on National Geographic Channel at 8pm. The show will quite literally 'go inside' a full-size T.Rex for the first time ever to reveal how the 65-mliion-year-old beast may have lived.
