Baryonyx was a species of carnivorous dinosaur called Spinosauridae. Baryonyx lived during the Mesozoic Era, during the early Cretaceous period.

Traits[]

A large predatory dinosaur, Baryonyx hunted fish, bringing down prey with large, sharp, three-fingered claws on short but powerful forearms and a long snout full of sharp teeth that seized prey hard. 

A single giant and ill-tempered albino Baryonyx named Rudy, Baryonyx could bring down prey of virtually any size, from small creatures such as the dinosaur-hunting weasel Buck to prey as large as mammoths and other dinosaurs.

Behind the Scenes[]

  • In the film, Rudy is an albino Baryonyx. However, the game Ice Age Village allows the player to have an entire family of Baryonyx colored just like Rudy, which suggests that either albinism is very common in the species or that is their normal coloration.
  • Baryonyx was larger than Tyrannosaurus rex, almost like Spinosaurus, and it incorrectly has its claw on its first finger the same size as the other claws, but the real Baryonyx was smaller than Tyrannosaurus, and its first finger was larger.
