Description

Scorpios rex is a ‘hybrid’ dinosaur created by splicing the DNA of the scorpionfish, a deadly fish that secretes venom from its fins, with a variety of carnivorous dinosaurs. The combination of power, intelligence, dexterity and speed with such a powerful venom makes Scorpios rex one of the most fearsome dinosaurs ever to have existed. It can grown up to eight meters in length and has rows of serrated teeth designed to tear through the flesh of its prey.

Discovery

The genus was created by Dr. Henry Wu on the instruction of billionaire impresario Simon Masrani, although the dinosaur’s extremely unstable temperament led to it being placed into cryogenic storage. However, disaster struck soon after when the storage container cracked through overheating, leading to the dinosaur escaping its unit and wreaking havoc across Camp Cretaceous.

Paleoecology

Scorpios rex has only ever lived in captivity, so little is known about its natural habitat. Researchers believe that the hybrid’s aggressive behavior make it unsuitable for release into the wild – in fact, many experts believe that its creation was a mistake, and it should be destroyed as a matter of urgency.
