Move over T-Rex! Guemesia ochoai is a Newly Discovered Dinosaur with Even Tinier Arms

The T-rex is known as one of the most ferocious predators to walk our planet. But the T-rex is not only known for that; it is also known for its unusually tiny arms. However, T-rex arms are not the shortest. A new dinosaur species was recently discovered in Argentina. This dinosaur had even tinier arms than T-rex! This dinosaur, Guemesia ochoai, was an abelisaurid species from a group of carnivores said to have roamed in Africa, South America, and India.

Also similar to the T-rex was this dinosaur's ferocity; it may be armless, but it is in no way harmless. Despite their smaller stature, the abelisaurs can take down bigger titanosaurs.

These dinosaurs might be a pain in the butt to wrestle with, but if there's a type of wrestling where they cannot participate, it's arm wrestling.
