pThere is a regular problem that always occurs when talking about Africa. Africa does seem to have the most amazing animal life forms as we know them today. But people always say that Africa had some of the most popular dinosaurs as we currently know them.!–more– Although Africa had a wide range of dinosaurs both in the Triassic and Jurassic periods, the more well known ones were in fact not originating from Africa. So lets take a look at which of these dinosaurs are actually mistaken as being from Africa./pp/ppT-Rex/ppThe Tyrannosaurus rex is the daddy of all dinosaurs. To this current day the T Rex is still the most recognized dinosaur in the world. The T Rex was around the cretaceous period and in what we now acknowledge as Western North America. The most dangerous dinosaur of them all was not in the African continent./pp/ppAllosaurus/ppThe Allosaurus was like the T Rex and was a fierce dinosaur in the Jurassic period. Again these dinosaurs were actually from North America, but did eventually move over to Portugal and Tanzania./pp/ppVelociraptor/ppThe Velociraptor was again a fierce dinosaur, but not as big as the above two. The Velociraptor was in the Cretaceous period and was originally thought to be from Asia. The Velociraptor is famous for its place in the Jurassic Park films, but it is said that the Jurassic Park films were quite inaccurate as a true Velociraptor was much smaller and had wings to its name. The actions of the Velociraptor were though spot on showing how fierce such a small creature can be./pp/ppFor great a href=http://www.africasky.co.uk target=_blanksafari/a, a href=http://www.africasky.co.uk/lamu-holidays/ target=_blankLamu safari/a and a href=http://www.africasky.co.uk/namibia-holidays/ target=_blankNamibia safari/a/p
