Indominus rex could have existed + evidence
Indominus rex. It was awsome in Jurassic World. And the titan wing Indominus (the level 40 in jurassic world the game) is even more so. But there is some truth in it. There is a theropod dinosaur from Northern Africa called Deltadromeus. It lived in what is now the sahara desert around the same time as Spinosaurus. During this time, basically ever single species that existed in Northern Africa had an extremely similar copy that existed in South America. Oxalaia was that to Spinosaurus, Giganotosaurus and Mapusaurus to Carcharodontosaurus, even 2 seperate species of the genus of crocodile, Sarcosuchus. Deltadromeus was a ceratosaurid that was built like an Allosaurus-raptor hybrid. in shape, it is very similar to Indominus rex. The South American counterpart of Deltadromeus has never been discovered. In the case of the abelisaurids, practically armless ceratosaurids related to Deltadromeus, many of the South American species were larger than the Northern African species. It is logical to believe that a dinosaur similar in structure to Indominus rex could have existed as the South American equivilent of Deltadromeus. The white-ish, grey coloring of the skin of Indominus rex (chromatophorical skin is not very realistic) could also have been used to its advantage as camoflage against mountainous, foggy, cloudy, etc., kinds of environments; or against snow. Dinosaur species are discovered all the time, and I believe this one is a plausible one.

Titan wing Indomimus rex wow I never know Indomimus have wing! :D Good job bro
=.=
Honestly, I'm feeling just a tiny bit click-baited? But also a bit relieved. There are a number of species of theropods that would have similar anatomy to Indominus rex, and while it's really cool that you found one with a similar body structure, albiet a different skull, it's good to hear that there isn't actually a featherless dinosaur that has cuttlefish-like cloaking capabilities.
Always a pleasure to read about real dinosaurs, though, in any circumstance. Thanks! Adding to Deltadromeus to the list of dinosaurs I know about. :)
In my opinion indominus rex and indoraptor do exist if you count them as giganotosaurus and fasolasuchus.
