Hello everyone... the Leonardo contest entries and Dino Party HAs are awesome! it takes me so long just to make a simple one, so I didn't have the time to participate this time around. Have a good week ahead!

It is a dino species. A rarer one yet proper named. I chose this one because I tried to find it via "Google, show me all dinosaur names with 6 letters" yet this doesn't work....... :-)

I'm not sure it counts

Don’t post what you find in the word search here!

Please only post the solution word you build out of the 6 letters, my friend. ^-^

well i definitely don't understand what have to be done XD

I thought maybe tanius, but that's the name of a genus and it doesn't use one of the dinosaur names.

Just to clarify, we are definitely looking for the name of a SPECIES and not a GENUS?

i'm guessing you're not looking for protea since it's a flower not an animal? might as well ask since it's the only thing i've found that fits

Alas, no. We're looking for a carnivorous dinosaur.

You need to find six dinosaur names in the word search (but don't post them here!). Then you need to randomly choose one letter from each of the words (check the OP for which letters you need to choose). Then you need to take those letters and unscramble them to make the name of a dinosaur species. It's a bit of a trial and error process, because there are lots of different possible letter combinations that could be used.

Once you have unscrambled the letters and you think you've found the answer, you may post the answer you think you've found here. (I know; it's pretty confuzzling.)

Spinax? Not sure if that's a species, though. ....And it doesn't work - never mind!

My lovelies, I just found out the name of the dinosaur changes 1 letter in the English name to the German one, I am so sorry. ^-^ If you look for the English one, you have to change the 3th letter into another 4th letter. To give you a hint, this 4th letter belongs to the saur you found in the word puzzle which begins with A. For your inconvenience, I am going to send you a small gift, I am very sorry. However, I know you'll find the dino in a blink now! <3 For your convenience, here is the corrected letter row again:

Do you have what it takes to be a paleontologist? ;-)
Then you&;ll find the 6 hidden dinosaurs in the word search for sure!</p>
<p>You have to find a solution word so please only post this word here and NOT the names of the 6 dinosaurs!
You&;ll find the solution word by marking down the following letters:
Last letter, 4th letter, 7th letter, 8th letter, 8th letter, 4th letter.
From which word you take each letter is yours to choose yet only choose one letter from every dino name.
Scrambling them, you&;ll find the solution word which is the name of a dinosaur species.
Good luck! ^-^</p>

...pholis?

No. I didn't know this one even existed. We all learn something new here, LOL. I'll post a new hint in an hour.

Hopefully I'll have figured it out by then! My biggest problem is that I'm finding mostly genera instead of species

Just post them, then, because you often find them mixed up in literature. I went by straight down science papers yet I am sure you find sources online which are not quite that accurate. If the name fits, I'll accept. ^-^

So close, yet so far! So many I'm finding are just one letter off, or the letters are in the dinosaur names but not in the correct places DX

I would've guessed phagia, but it's not quite correct or anthus, but the letters are in the wrong places

Never mind, lophus doesn't work

maybe charon? letters aren't in right places.

I'm only finding dinos from the Late Cretaceous.

Alas, no. ^-^ I am giving another hint when is on again to be fair because they tried to solve the puzzle, too.

Yep, no problem! Just a little frustrated because I've spent literal HOURS trying to figure this out 😕
