While platysaurus is a herbivore, the deinoplatysaur is a carnivore. It resembles a long-extinct carcharodontosaur theropod dinosaur, but with mammal fur, mammal earbones, and tiger-like teeth. It is the largest carnivorous mammal alive today, bigger than the long-extinct Andrewsarchus, about 35 feet long and weighing about 1-5 tons. It is indigenous to Asian areas including China, Mongolia, Thailand, and India. Its favorite prey items are elephants, platysauruses, rhinoceroses, large deer, and carrion, while young deinoplatysaurs feeds on insects, small fish, small frogs, small salamanders/newts, small birds, and smaller mammals.
