Profile
Tyrannosaurus rex is one of the largest therapods and eats large quantities of meat from any source.

They are normally solitary, and hunt both large and small prey over a wide territory. They will happily coexist with a good number of other dinosaur species, although maybe not to their satisfaction!

T. rex prefers large areas of open grassland for its territory. {| border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" style="width:300px;" class="article-table" align="center" ! colspan="2" style="text-align:center;vertical-align:middle;"|

Description
Tyrannosaurus rex is probably the most familiar dinosaur in history. Its name means "tyrant lizard king' and to many it represents the ultimate predator. This magnificent animal has long been at the heart of dinosaur attractions.

This bipedal carnivore is known for its massive heart with what is theorized as one of the strongest bites to have ever existed on land.

Discovery
Tyrannosaurus rex fossils have been found across the once island continent of Laramidia - now western North America.

Teeth were the first fossil find in 1874 near Golden in Colorado. The largest skeleton find so far was by Sue Henrickson at the Hell Creek Formation in South Dakota.

Paleoecology
Tyrannosaurus rex ranged across a number of different ecosystems. These vary between island and coastal subtropical regions, and semi-arid plains. To the north it is considered the dominant predator, but to the south Alamosaurus dominated.
