The passage mentions about recent study archaeologist did on a fossil of a 150 million year old mammals known as R.Robustus(R.R) and having said that the mammal`s stomach contained remains of a psittacosaur dinosaurs. And the lecturer provides evidences that R.R hunted the dinosaurs.
Firstly, in the passage, R.R was only the size of domestic cat and it is unlikely that it could hunt such tall full grown dinosaurs. And the lecturer refutes the point having said that R.R could have hunted a baby dinosaurs as they are smaller than the giant dinosaurs.

And the lecturer claims that, they had powerful jaws to hold and grab their preys and they did`t used back teeth for chewing the prey and could have swallowed with no scars of teeth in their bones.
