Both the reading passage and the lecture talks about Repenomamus robustus patterns to eat food and how that relates to either it hunted other dinosaurs or scavenged them. The former talks about three reasons why R. robustus was a scavenger and not a hunter, but the latter challenges all three reasons.
First of all, the passage mentions that robustus was small moreover, the passage compares it's size to a domestic cat. robustus was small as compared to psittacosaurs, which when fully grow, was about two meters tall, therefore couldn't be hunted by R. robustus. However, the professor in the lecture contends that robustus could have hunted baby psittacosaurs as predators hunt on prey, which they are twice the size of. According to the professor robustus would have hunted psittacosaurs when they were a baby.
Second of all, the passage talks about the small length and the peculiar position of the legs of robustus that were positioned to side instead of under them. On the other hand, the professor in the lecture argues that the length and position of the leg does not matter and give the example of modern day tasmanian devil that has similar legs to robustus and can run fast and can reach to the speed of 15 km per hour and is very active and successful hunter of today. According to the professor, if they current tasmanian devil can hunt then the 150 million years old dinosaur could do it without doubt.
Finally, the passage mentions that if robustus hunted the animal then there should be teeth marks on the bones of psittacosaurs found from the stomach of robustus, but it doesn't show any such marks. Nevertheless, like the other two reasons, the professor disagree with this and says that the passage has not thoroughly researched about robustus, because there have been research that has mentioned that robustus didn't use their back teeth to swallow and use to eat big pieces that is the reason of no teeth marks on psittacosaurs in the stomach.
