The crest being set the way it is really won't help, since it points backwards away from the head (it's not like a ceratopsian's horns that point forward), narrowing its attack range. Finally, Tyrannosaurus hunt Edmontosaurus (larger than Parasaurolophus), Triceratops (which are literally bone-headed) and Ankylosaurus (which has really tough skin). I don't personally see how Alpha is any different.

Sorry, but Tyrannosaurus wins this. Alpha's best bet would be to retreat. Them's just the facts as I see them. Although some parasaurs are 10 meters long, Alpha is larger for a 10 meter Parasaurolophus. Also, I mentioned that Alpha had a bold heart and strong courage, meaning that while he can fight all the carnivores he wants, the other ones would just flee. It doesn't matter about body shapes: Alpha would do anything to protect his herd, because if he fleed, like you recommended, the T-Rex would kill one of his kind, or a friend, or anyone. Courage changes the battle: Alpha would die for his herd to move on. Also, despite the crest pointing backwards, he can use his crest to hammer into the T-Rex's hard skin, like how the Parasaur in JW:TG uses the pachy animation. Alpha might have a hard battle, but it matters if he can avoid the deadly jaws of the T-Rex.
