Acrocanthosaurus wins with relative ease against the sub-adult specimen of Siats. It seems the chances will be more even at adult sizes however.

Are there official figures on Siats meekerorum (adult size)?

Are there official figures on Siats meekerorum (adult size)? Well the adult size is definitely going to be above 11-12 metres and 4 tons.

That's not really the answer for my question, hence the fact that is obvious and because it is clear that you answered me with something that hasn't much to do with the question. What animal's growth rate was used as a base for that statement? If there isn't a base, it is pretty speculative rather than factual.

I wasn't really talking about the animal's growth rate, I was basically saying that an adult Siats will be larger than 11-12 metres and 4+ tons (which is the size of the sub-adult specimen). I probably wasn't specific enough.

I'm not assuming an exact estimate, and I doubt that an adult Siats would be no larger than a sub-adult Siats.

Its obvious its going to be bigger at adult size, its not speculation its fucking obvious.

Also I highly doubt the 4 ton estimate for a 11-12 metre animal, thats impossible unless its like ceolophysis.

4 tons is not that unusual for an 11 metre animal.
