Carcharodontosaurus Dinosaur Tooth    Carcharodontosaurus is genus of carnivorous carcharodontosaurid dinosaurs that existed between 100 and 93 million years ago.  It is currently known to include two species, C.saharicus and C.iguidensis, which were among the larger theropods, as large as or slightly bigger than Tyrannosaurus.  They were possibly slightly larger than Giganotosaurus, but not quite as large as Spinosaurus.  Carcharodontosaurus includes some of the longest and heaviest known carnivorous dinosaurs.   Scientists estimate a length estimates for the species C. saharicus ranging between 12 and 13 m (39 and 43 ft) and weight estimates between 6 and 15 metric tons.
