Large carnivores are the top of the food chain. They are ruthless predators that will attack virtually anything that moves. The lower end of this category is similar to raptors or immature versions of the larger species. The largest of this category are similar to the allosaurus, tyrannosaurus rex, spinosaurus and meglosaurus.
Combat
These types usually attack with both claws and a bite. Many carnivores hold on with their bites, inflicting bite damage automatically each round. Larger species may also be able to swallow prey whole (Swallow Whole (Ex)).
Improved Grab (Ex): If a large carnivore hits with its bite attack, it deals normal damage and attempts to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If the grapple succeeds, the large carnivore may hold the victim and inflict bite damage automatically.
Scent (Ex): This special quality allows a large carnivore to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell.
Skills: A large carnivore has a +2 racial bonus on Listen and Spot checks.
