Tyrannosaurus Rex
Tyrannosaurus rex
“The King of Dinosaurs”
Tyrannosaurus Rex, meaning 'tyrant lizard king', was one of the largest land predators to ever exist. With its massive skull, powerful jaws containing 50-60 serrated teeth, and tiny but muscular arms, T-Rex dominated North America during the Late Cretaceous period. Recent research suggests it may have had feathers and was likely an intelligent, social hunter.
