How to unlock the Tyrannicide achievement in Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD - Definitive Guide
The “Trophy Room” is accessed via the main menu and within it there’s a total of 17 slots which you can fill with the various dinosaurs you’ve collected from your hunts. In order to “collect” a dinosaur you need to have the relevant license equipped before you enter a hunt, and then once you’ve killed a dinosaur you need to approach it and collect it with .

The Decoy simulates the sound made by specific dinosaurs, and if there are dinosaurs of that variety in the area they'll answer the call, revealing their location as a result. It may take a couple of attempts but you’ll be able find the location of the T-Rex fairly quickly. Once located, take down the T-Rex, and most importantly collect the kill. Distance and the high-ground are your allies when performing these kills, so try to employ both as much as you can; often if you’re standing on head-level rocks, the T-Rex won’t be able to get you and will end up running around mindlessly - use this exploit as much as you can also.
In order to actually unlock the two Trophy Room trophies, you need to physically “set” each dinosaur in a vacant space within the room. Approach each space, navigate the lists and set a dinosaur by pressing .
