Majungasaurus — size comparison — facts and sources

Majungasaurus was a predatory abelisaurid of Late Cretaceous Madagascar. It used meat from large vertebrates, and bone traces provide considerably more direct feeding evidence than general comparisons with relatives.

Bite marks identified on other Majungasaurus remains are interpreted as evidence of cannibalistic feeding. They do not establish whether it killed members of its own species or ate already dead individuals.
