I am still thinking of 1 and 2, but I think it is funny I went with the same theme for 3 as jbradfor.

#3 - 谢天谢地, 我欠这个家伙50美元。

1. 靠,这只恐龙的嘴可真臭啊!不行,我得把兜里面的口香糖掏出来。

2. 老子最讨厌你这种卑鄙龌龊的家伙!看我的招!

3. 呦,难得的机会!嘎吱!哇,果然很美味,人类还是我最喜爱的猎物!

OK, here's mine for #1: [i need help on this grammar.....]

兽物牙醫的生活很差

[Given that picture, I'm pretty shocked I managed anything remotely clean.]

Thanks for those corrections! The 要/用 wasn't a type-o on my part; it was a mistake. I just translated English "Don't have to" to 要, but I see now how something like "there is no need to" sounds better in Chinese.

I think 牠 is the traditional equivalent of 它.

I did not know that. This must be a case of many to one Trad to Simp, then, because according to Taiwan's MOE's Dictionary 它 gets used in Trad for "it":

它  部首   部首外筆畫 2 總筆畫 5

注音一式  ㄊㄚ

漢語拼音 tā

無生物的第三身指稱詞。專指人以外的無生物。如:「這是塊石頭,你踢了它,對你有何好處?」

它 should be used for animals when you're writing in simplified, 牠 should be used when you're writing in traditional.

And yes, I'm guilty of dinosaur discrimination and I'm not ashamed.
