Archaeologists have recently found a fossil of a 150-million-year-old mammalknown as Repenornamus robustus (R. robustus). Interestingly, the mammal'sstomach contained the remains of a psittacosaur dinosaur. Some researchers havetherefore suggested th

The reading states that it is unbelievable that R. robustus was an active hunter of dinosaurs and provides three reasons. However, the professor opposes this argument by explaining that actually, R. robustus was a powerful hunter of dinosaurs.

Firstly, the reading claims that R. robustus was too small to hunt. In other words, their size was similar to a domestic cat. In contrast, the professor disagrees with this argument by providing proofs that R. robustus was bigger and could eat little dinosaurs.

Secondly, the reading argues that legs were too short and more appropriate for scavaging as opposed to hunting. Whereas, the professor refuses this idea. He provides an example of another dinosaur called Tasmania Devil, whose legs was the same length and positioned to the same side as R. Robustus. Besides, this Tasmania Devil could run 15km/h by being an active and successful hunter.

Third, the reading provides another reason that R. robustus was not a hunter because of no proofs of teeth marks on eaten another animal, while professor states in the lecturer that R. robustus had big jaws allowing swallow big pieces of victims. Thus, it approves the absence of teeth marks on the bones of eaten animals.
