The lecture discusses about the feeding habit and the nature of R. Robustus either it is a scavenger or a hunter. The passage suggests that R. robustus have trait that make it more similar to the scavangers . But the lecturer states that there are many evidences that give us enough idea about the nature of R. robustus: a hunter.

Firstly, given by its small size, it has been regarded as a scavenger as it would not be possible for a small animal to hunt large dinosaurs. Thus, the passage concludes it to be a scavenger. But the lectures suggests that there may be possibility that R. Robustus might feed on the small babies of the R. Robustus and dinosaur that are similar to its size.

Secondly, the passage suggests that R. Robustus have such small legs that prevent it to move as fast as possible to act as a hunter. But the lecturer insists giving examples of "Tasmanian devil" to support her view. As Tasmanian devil also have a similar type of legs but can run as fast as 15 km per hour gives evidences that R. Robustus might actually be a hunter.

Finally, they lack of teeth mark on the bone can be explained as R. robustus prefer to consume the food as a whole or in big pieces making it difficult to observe such markings in the bone of the dinosaur. Since the basic assumption of the lack of teeth mark cannot give enough evidences to indicate that R. Robustus is actually a scavenger rather than a hunter.
