A new and horrifying dinosaur was recently found, and you will be glad to know that it's been extinct for a very long time. 9: 60-Foot Dragon This next horrifying creature is a bit of a mystery. In a northern Chinese city, villagers came across the most peculiar remains you have ever seen. These bones are beyond mysterious, and their discovery was even filmed. 8: Worm with Legs It's often difficult to understand just what an animal looked like 400 million years ago. Even when there are fossils to study, it still takes a lot of guesswork to properly put together an extinct animal. 7: The Mega Crocodile Everyone knows that crocodiles have been around for a very long time. They are some of the oldest reptiles on our planet. They are also some of the most dangerous creatures living today. 6: Short-Faced Bear Anyone who lives in the wilderness of Canada or the northern United States has probably had at least one run-in with a bear. But these are usually peaceful encounters. 5: Giant Rhinoceros The giant rhinoceros was a prehistoric mammal like no other. It was vastly different from modern rhinoceroses, and even different from the woolly rhinoceros. In fact, it kind of looked like a modern rhino mixed with a woolly rhino, with a long coat of shaggy hair and an extremely long horn on its head that it could use to impale even the biggest dinosaur! 4: Quetzalcoatlus Now it’s time for the most nightmarish animal that ever took to our skies. I’m talking about the Quetzalcoatlus, one of the hardest names on earth to pronounce. 3: Smilodon The Smilodon is undoubtedly the most famous prehistoric animal ever. It's known commonly as the saber-toothed tiger, and even though it was likely a beautiful feline back in its day, we should all be happy that this animal does not exist anymore. 2: Megalania The Megalania was kind of like a Komodo dragon, only more terrifying. This was the biggest monitor lizard to live in Australia 2.5 million years ago. And when I say big, I mean really big! 1: Allosaurus I think we can all agree that the world is better off without carnivorous dinosaurs. Given how much technology we have right now, they wouldn't be a big threat. But still, nobody wants a bunch of hungry dinos trampling around in their front yard. #scariestcreatures #extinctcreatures #bizarrecreatures #americaneye
