Overview
The Megalosaurus is a playable carnivorous creature in Beasts of Bermuda. It is the second fastest predator, the fastest being Megaraptor. Both of these creatures can chase their prey for long distances thanks to their incredible speed. Such prey include the Parasaurolophus, Velociraptor and Ichthyovenator, as well as most juvenile creatures.
The Megalosaurus can detect the amount of health a nearby creature has. This lets the Megalosaurus properly decide whether a hunt should be initiated or not, as the health of a creature can determine if a fight will be easy or rough. Additionally, the Megalosaurus can invest talent points into the ability Identification to further enhance its ability to detect, further revealing their stamina, comfort, sex, water, food and even ability power. With such knowledge of its prey, the Megalosaurus can easily capitalize on their weakness.

Pros and Cons
Pros
- Can reveal the information of its prey
- Great speed
- Decent damage
- Great turn radius
- Stronger in numbers. Enough to take down T-rex using tactics and skill
Cons
- Vulnerable to larger predators such as the Acrocanthosaurus, or things that outspeed it such as Pteranodon and Pachycephalosaurus
- Middling weather resistance
- High skill gap if you wish to hunt bigger prey
- Weak as solo. Expect to hunt smaller creatures or live off of spawn gore as a solo player.

Abilities
- Primary Attack: A large, outward bite. It deals good damage and has a moderate rate of attack speed.
- Secondary Attack: Same as the Primary Attack, except it makes the Megalosaurus bite downwards instead of forwards.
- Special Ability: The Megalosaurus can gather the information of its prey. When the Ability Key is held down, a cursor will appear on the screen. When this cursor is pointed at a creature, it will be identified, allowing the Megalosaurus to see its stats. This ability consumes ability power.

Weakness
The Megalosaurus is far from an apex predator. It is threatened by predators much more larger and dangerous than it, as well as the Mosasaurus if near a large body of water.

Additional Notes
- The Megalosaurus is currently the second fastest terrestrial creature in the game, tied with the Megaraptor. Pachycephalosaurus can outspeed only when using it's ability. However, Megalo's speed pales in comparison to swimming creatures such as the Elasmosaurus and flying creatures such as the Pteranodon and Tropeognathus. As of the 21st december 2021 Megalosaurus lost it's bleeding ability and also the serrated teeth which got replaced with sharp teeth.
- Megalosaurus is one of the fastest-swimming non-aquatic playable creatures, becoming a fairly competent swimmer when the aqua affinity, strong lungs and resilience talents are maxed out. Due to this, it can be an excellent dinosaur for island hopping.
