Tyrannosaurus Rex is one of the most famous large carnivores in history. It lived during the Late Cretaceous period, 68-66 million years ago.
From nose to tail, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was 13 meters long. Its skull alone was 1.5 meters long. However, despite its enormous size, this dinosaur had remarkably small arms.
Tyrannosaurus Rex was the largest dinosaur in the Tyrannosauridae family. Other tyrannosaurus species followed closely behind, such as Tarbosaurus, Albertosaurus, and Feathered Tyrannosaurus.
This is one of the largest and best-preserved Tyrannosaurus Rex skeletons ever discovered. This famous specimen is on display at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago.
