TO GO WITH STORY by Mira Oberman, US-science-paleontology
This artists rendering obtained from the University of Chicago shows one of two new meat-eating dinosaurs which hunted the rich forests of Africa some 110 million years ago have been unearthed in Niger, researchers said on February 13, 2008. The short-snouted 25-foot (7.6-meter) long Kryptops palaios, or "old hidden face," also discovered in 2000, was likely a scavenger because of its short forearms and an armored snout better suited for digging into carcasses than for snapping at live prey.
