'''''Eustreptospondylus''''' was a carnivorous dinosaur from the Mid-[[Jurassic]] Period (160 000,000-154,000,000 BCE).
 
 
==Facts==
 
 
A five meter long predatory dinosaur, ''Eustreptospondylus ''where one of the largest carnivores in their environment, and one of the local dinosaurs of [[Europe]]. They might have fed on small and medium sea animals, [[Lizard|lizards]], and [[pterosaurs]] that lived on the islands.
 
 
''Eustreptospondylus'' was a [[Theropod|theropod]], a carnivorous dinosaur and a member of the Megalosauroidea superfamily, which contains relatives to the famous ''[[Megalosaurus]]''. In WWD, ''Eustreptospondylus'' was shown [[File:067.jpg|thumb|278px|''Eustreptospondylus'' in ''[[Walking with Dinosaurs]]'']]to be an amphibious hunter, capable of swimming from island to island and hunt both on land and in the shadows.
 
 
==Portrayal in the series==
 
 
In the series they where depicted as part-time, amphibious hunters, but mostly as scavengers.
 
 
It was said that in fights, the loudest roar wins. This is not backed up by any actual evidence.
 
 
==In Walking With... series==
 
===''[[Walking With Dinosaurs Pilot]]''===
 
It was in at least one scene of the WWDP. It is said to be incapable of hunting [[Cetiosaurus|Cetiosaurs]]. Interestingly, this shows it on a much larger island then any in the show.
 
 
===''[[Walking with Dinosaurs]]''===
 
====''[[Cruel Sea]]''====
 
The fact above was developed in the 3rd episode of WWD, where one lone ''Eustreptospondylus'' got snatched by a ''[[Liopleurodon]]''. Later, two other ''Eustreptospondylus ''fight over a dead [[Sea Turtle|turtle]]. Three more attack and devour some ''[[Rhamphorhynchus]]''. A group of ''Eustreptospondylus ''that survive a storm eat a stranded ''Liopleurodon ''caught by the storm.
 
 
==Appearances in Other Media==
 
===''Primeval''===
 
''Read more at the [http://primeval.wikia.com/wiki/Eustreptospondylus Anomaly Research] [http://primeval.wikia.com/wiki/Swimming_Theropod Centre]''
 
 
In the book ''Fire and Water'' a ''Eustreptospondylus'' comes through an Anomaly in a South African Wildlife reserve and attacks many of its animals. It was killed in a battle with a ''[[Postosuchus]]''.
 
 
A Jurassic Dinosaur dubbed "The Swimming Theropod" that appears in episode 5x02 acts similarly to ''Eustreptospondylus'' portrayal in '''Walking with Dinosaurs''' and may be the said creature.
