In The Land Before Time VI: The Secret of Saurus Rock, a Sharptooth appears during the film's climax alongside the Allosaurus that serves as the movie's primary Sharptooth antagonist.
History[]
After briefly escaping the Allosaurus, Littlefoot is confronted by another Sharptooth. Upon seeing the second predator approaching him, Littlefoot shouts for help. Running under his legs, Littlefoot admits that he is in way over his head and that he doesn't want to be a Lone Dinosaur anymore. The Sharptooth turns and immediately goes after the young Longneck, who soon trips over a small rock and falls. Just then, a shadow appears over him. At first thinking it to be Doc, he is soon proven wrong when it turns out to be his Grandfather. Grandpa tells Littlefoot to run while he and the Sharptooth fight.
Soon Littlefoot's friends arrive and watch with him as Grandpa effortlessly uses his tail to knock down the carnivore, tail-whipping the predator into a large rock and wrapping his tail around the sharptooth and headbutting it. As they cheer him on, Ducky soon points out that it's not over yet. The Allosaurus soon arrives and roars in anger (presumably for having to waste so much of its time and energy, as Littlefoot was able to escape by moving past a large boulder that the predator had to destroy before getting through).
With Grandpa distracted, the second Sharptooth gets back up and knocks the elder away with his foot. Doc appears and pulls the Allosaurus to the ground with his tail. The second Sharptooth faces Doc, but Grandpa recovers and knocks the sharptooth away with his neck. When both Sharpteeth recover and charge at the two Longnecks, they easily move out of the way causing the Sharpteeth to crash into a rock spire. As the carnivores are down, the Longnecks pull both sides of the spire with their tails, causing it to break and crumble down, crushing the two carnivores to death.
The fight against the two Sharpteeth is recalled in a truncated form in the The Land Before Time television series episode, "The Lone Dinosaur Returns", through a story relayed to Chomper and Ruby by Littlefoot. In this flashback sequence, the Sharptooth is shown as a second, darker-colored Allosaurus.
Trivia[]
- He is one of three antagonists from the films to appear in the TV series, with the others being the Browridge Sharptooth and the Sail-Backed Sharptooth (though in the tyrannosaur's case, he is replaced by another Allosaurus)
- This Sharptooth is the last large Sharptooth in the franchise to have red eyes, a trait common in sharpteeth from I-VI that made them look more menacing and dangerous. Later sequels do not give large Sharpteeth red eyes, and instead give them human eye colors such as green and yellow which look less intimidating.
- The only exception is Red Claw, who has one red eye.
