- Topsy and Grandpa Longneck cower in fear behind a group of rocks from a single Sharptooth, despite both of them having fought off Sharpteeth on their own multiple times in the past. Said Sharptooth is also a Carnotaurus, a fairly medium-sized theropod.
- They're getting too old? Alternatively, they're scared because they've never seen anything like it. They're used to plain T-rex's and raptors, not this weird thing. Topsy would also realize what it could do with its horns.
- The horns of Carnotaurus were primarily used to attract mates, similar to the plates of Stegosaurus. They had no purpose in a fight.
- More likely explanation: another sharptooth fight (one that might have even been entertaining) wasn't in the budget.
