Tyrannosaurus Rex

  Today's task was to write about dinosaurs so I chose the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Did you know that Tyrannosaurus Rex were twice as tall as elephants. The Tyrannosaurus rex live about 68 million years ago.

 They are over 12 meters ( 39 foot tall). Tyrannosaurus were really fast they could move at 16-48 km/h.The Tyrannosaurus Rex have two very powerful legs and two small arms.  They had really big feet which would help them walk or run long distances.   

Tyrannosaurus deadly jaws could deliver bone crushing bite far more powerful than any modern day animals. The Tyrannosaurus Rex had 50 teeth as big as bananas. Tyrannosaurus Rex are meat eating animals.


Tyrannosaurus Rex were Carnivores they would hunt and take food off other dinosaurs.  The Tyrannosaurus Rex was first discovered in 1902 and was named in 1905. Large Tyrannosaurus Rex bite marks have been found in other dinosaurs fossils. Tyrannosaurus Rex fossils have been found in USA and Mongolia.

Barnum Brown found hundreds of dinosaurs bones while working for the American Museum of  Natural history in New York.  He was born in 1873 and he died in 1963. He found the first and third Tyrannosaurus rex skeletons.

  1. Wow - no I didn't know any of that! How interesting. Teeth as big as bananas - I would not want to be eaten by one of them!

    I found this interesting - I wonder if you could include a picture next time. Check out slide 2 Ben - it gives you the instructions of how you can start Blog Hopping and which blogs you need to visit. Good Luck!

  2. Wow!!! Just like Mrs Earl, I too would not want to be eaten with teeth that are the size of bananas! Thank you for all this wonderful information.

    You might want to try one of the virtue tours of famous museums around the world. I wonder if the American Museum of Natural History has a virtue tour? If so, you might be able to spot one a T-Rex skeleton.
