Elliot's deadliest foe? (joke)



I just had to share this. At the Queensland Museum's Elliot website is a
transcript of Scott Hocknull's (Hucknull?) excavation diary. In it,
Scott discusses the Lark Quarry ichnogenus Tyrannosauropus. The name has
been transcribed thus:

Now the footprints at Lark Quarry preserved the prints of a very large
carnivorous dinosaur, or a carnosaur. It?s given the name *Tyrannosaur
Puss*, which basically means a foot like a Tyrannosaur.

I'm familiar with cats attacking dinosaurs of the flying variety - but
adult sauropods as well?
