It was connected to Antarctica, which was in turn connected to South America and Africa. So theoretically we might one day find carcharadontosaurs (and maybe abelisaurs, too) in Australia. It's interesting how Australia's Mesozoic fauna has exploded in recent years. When I was little, nearly all the named ones were herbivores, and the carnivores were either based on extremely fragmentary remains (Rapator, Kakuru, Ozraptor), or were the polar allosaur. In any case, our dinosaurs sucked compared to everywhere else. Now we have gigantic sauropods, Australovenator, and now this. It's like the most interesting stuff is being found right now. When I was little, I didn't give a darn about whether or not a dinosaur came from my country, if it was cool, I liked it..
