Fan made size charts shouldn't be used to find an animal's size in the films. I don't know where they found the sizes 42 ft for the females and males being 40 ft. The closest size I could get was from The Making of The Lost World: Jurassic Park book which when describing the size of the Tyrannosaur animatronics mounted on carts used in film, and I quote: "At its full extension on the cart, each T-rex reached a length of about thirty-seven feet and a height of twenty feet." The Making of The Lost World: Jurassic Park, page 47

I'm unsure if these animatronics had tails or not, but that's the closest I can get to a size for the two. Well which T. rex is the largest!? Rexy or the Tyrannosaur Doe?
