Toro appears briefly in Yasmina's trauma induced nightmare, alongside the Indominus rex, a Ceratosaurus, and the Scorpios rex.

The skeleton of Carnotaurus "robustus floridaensis" in the lobby for the ride at Animal Kingdom is a casting made by combining elements of cast material from a Tyrannosaurus rex and scaled up casts of actual Carnotaurus sastrei material.

"A new turtle from the La Colonia Formation (Campanian–Maastrichtian), Patagonia, Argentina, with remarks on the evolution of the vertebral column in turtles". Palaeontology. 54 (1): 65. doi: 10.1111/j.1475-4983.2010.01002.x.In older scripts, there were plans for Carnotaurus to appear in a laboratory area (presumably what later became the Workers’ Village) in The Lost World: Jurassic Park, but this scene never made it to the film. They were described as camouflaged, likely describing the kind of adaptive camouflage depicted in the novel. Another inaccuracy is that while the Carnotaurs in the movie are very big, bulky animals, the real-life Carnotaurus was a very slim animal, almost like a cheetah with long, gracile legs. Carnotaurus appears in the novelization of Jurassic Park III, though misspelled " Carnotosaurus", based off the film's original script. He was going to appear in Jurassic World: Dominion, but he was removed. It can be assumed he still lives on Mantah Corp Island, which has since then been repurposed into a secret dinosaur sanctuary few people know about. Carnotaurus in real life may have preferred to hunt small animals owing to its small skull and inferior bite-force compared to the likes of Tyrannosaurus and other larger theropods, however it may have also preyed upon bigger animals.

Toro exhibited an unwavering determination to hunt down the campers, persistently pursuing them until he was ultimately defeated by their use of explosives, which caused him to injure himself. When Toro first encountered the campers, it is possible that he experienced significant pain upon seeing them. This encounter likely made him realize that the campers, as a collective group, possessed the ability to defend themselves. Many animals have vestigial features, including humans. For example, you still have a tailbone in your skeleton, even though you don't have a tail! Could Carnotaurus camouflage itself? Glut, Donald F. (2000). " Carnotaurus". Dinosaurs: The Encyclopedia. 1st Supplement. Jefferson, North Carolina: McFarland & Company, Inc. pp.165–167. ISBN 978-0-7864-0591-6. In the Jurassic Park Adventures book series, Carnotaurus was one of the dinosaurs recreated by InGen that soon went wild on Isla Sorna when the workers fled the island due to Hurricane Clarissa. The snout of the Disney Carnotaurus is much more prolonged and broader than the snout of the Carnotaurus in real life which is often compared to that of a bulldog as well as more robust.

Notable Individuals

Carnotaurus was part of the abelisaur group. These closely related dinosaurs shared similar characteristics. But Carnotaurus is the only one known to have two horns on its head. In Dinosaur this was the only dinosaur that did not speak throughout the film, not counting the opening scene. Headden, Jaime A. (September 19, 2006). "Re: Carnotaurus sastrei etymology".

In the ride DINOSAUR at Disney's Animal Kingdom, a Carnotaurus is encountered four times, in addition to a Carnotaurus sculpture appearing on the sign for the attraction, and the animal's presence can be felt early on in the queue.The Carnotaurus was first seen in the 1998 Disney's Animal Kingdom commercial on The Lion King II: Simba's Pride VHS. Toro had shown to heal some time later as his burns became darker and his distinct facial scar from Darius had healed.
