Daspletosaurus Appears on Television

Daspletosaurus was an interesting tyrannosaurid for a number of reasons. One of the reasons that has been explored was that Daspletosaurus was contemporaneous with another tyrannosaurid, Gorgosaurus libratus. The BBC show Planet Dinosaur was willing to imagine the world in which these two gargantuan dinosaurs lived, how Daspletosaurus may have hunted its prey, and how Daspletosaurus and Gorgosaurus may have interacted. The clip below only shows Daspletosaurus hunting and fighting with a Centrosaurus however.
