Tyrannosaurus rex dinosaurs. Computer artwork of T. rex dinosaurs feeding on a Parasaurolophus dinosaur. T. rex was a carnivorous theropod dinosaur that existed in the Upper Mastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous Period, between 65 and 67 million years ago. It was one of the largest known carnivorous dinosaurs, measuring 12.4 metres long and between 4.6 to 6 metres tall. Its skull was around 1.6 metres long and the eye sockets about 10 centimetres wide. Adults may have weighed around 7 tonnes. T. rex walked on two legs, and may have reached a running speed of 24 kilometres per hour. It is thought that T. rex may have been both a predator and a scavenger, having characteristics that suggest both possibilities

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the awe-inspiring Tyrannosaurus rex dinosaurs in action. The computer artwork vividly depicts a scene of T. rex dinosaurs feasting on a Parasaurolophus dinosaur, offering us a glimpse into the prehistoric world that existed between 65 and 67 million years ago. Tyrannosaurus rex, known as one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs, was an imposing figure measuring 12.4 meters long and standing between 4.6 to 6 meters tall. Its ferocious skull spanned around 1.6 meters with wide eye sockets measuring approximately 10 centimeters across. With adults weighing up to an astonishing seven tonnes, these bipedal predators were truly formidable. While scientists debate whether T. rex was primarily a predator or scavenger, its characteristics suggest it may have been both. This apex predator possessed incredible speed, potentially reaching up to 24 kilometers per hour when running on two legs. The intricate illustration captures the essence of these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat – wild and untamed. It serves as a reminder of the rich diversity that once roamed our planet during this fascinating period in Earth's history. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported back through time to witness these ancient reptiles ruling over their domain with unmatched aggression and dominance—a testament to nature's remarkable evolution and resilience throughout millennia.
