The Sahara Desert, which encompasses over 3.6 million square miles of Northern Africa, is one of the harshest and most inhospitable places on the planet today. However, new research conducted by a team of international paleontologists has found that millions of years ago, the area was a lush green oasis filled with a frightening line-up of ferocious carnivores, including flying reptiles, crocodile-like hunters, and aquatic dinosaurs.

    Again, I really like this article, but I think this info could just be used for predators that lived here. Although this was all about the vicious predators not herbivores. I just wish that there could be info about the herbivores or maybe even omnivores, I don know, but the last time I´m gonna say this, I really liked this article.

            Nice, overall I think this is a spectacular article. I've never known that dinosaurs live in the Sahara Desert or even that Carcharodontosaurus or bigger than the T-rex!

                This is cool. The land looked very different from today, so I am sure that the desert was a good habbitat for them. did you know that in the dinosaurs's time period there was no grass? But there was ferns and other grass alike plants.

                  This is sooooo cool! I love dinosaurs so much and did you know that some large plant eating dinosaurs like the Brachiosaurus and Apatosaurus ate rocks to help digest the plants they ate?
