Beyond the game
The real Rajasaurus
Its description is based on a partial skeleton with elements of the skull, spine, hip and extremities. This carnivorous abelisaurid was formally unveiled in 2003.
Its name means “royal lizard of the Narmada,” linking it to the region where it was found. The preserved material allows researchers to connect features of the skull, spine, hips and limbs.
A family of carnivorous theropods particularly well known from the ancient southern continents. It includes animals such as Carnotaurus and Majungasaurus; their relationships are studied by comparing skeletal features, not skin color.
