Two new species of dinosaurs discovered on Isle of Wight

The transcript discusses the discovery of two new spinosaurid species by paleontologists at the University of Southampton. These species are closely related to the Giant Spinosaurus and are believed to have hunted both on land and in water due to their crocodile-like skulls. One species is named Riporabinator Milner A, and the other is Syratusu Cops in Ferradius, meaning Horned Crocodile Faced Hell Heron. These dinosaurs likely caught aquatic prey like herons and also consumed terrestrial prey. Both species were about 9 meters long, with skulls a meter long, and may have evolved in Europe before spreading to Asia, Africa, and South America.
