Yes, Allosaurus was strictly carnivorous. Adult Allosaurus probably hunted large, herbivorous dinosaurs such as Camptosaurus, Dryosaurus, and Stegosaurus, and young sauropods. If they hunted in packs on occasion, they may have even hunted huge adult sauropods such as Diplodocus, Brachiosaurus, Camarasaurus, and Apatosaurus.
