Hello, hello. Welcome to the video. I see you have all come back for another episode in The Power of series, this one having another Carcharodontosaurid, this time being Mapusaurus, which comes after both Tyrannotitan and Giganotosaurus.
I will also quickly note, I have two more mega-theropod species lined up after this one, and then I’ll be doing a video wrapping around these first ten Power of videos in the form of a tierlist. So, make sure to stick around for that video. But for now, let’s see where Mapusaurus ranks as of now.
