Young Allosaurus were either protected by their parents or simply ran to escape danger. Adult Allosaurus were 28 feet long and weighed somewhere between 2,200 and 8,800 lb depending on whose estimate you use. Because they were the largest predators in their habitat, the only significant threat to adult Allosaurus were other adult Allosaurus. They would have fought each other mostly by biting, but they may have also used their relatively strong arms and struck each other with their claws.
