Nanotyrannus The Small Version Of The T-Rex

In 1942, Charles W. Gilmore discover the first fossils of the Nanotyrannus in Wyoming.                                                                                         

Nanotyrannus is the small version of T-Rex. Think of him a mine me T-Rex. I wouldn't want to meet either of them on the street! Would you? 

                                        

                                                          T-Rex and Nanotyrannus

 Nanotyrannus is know as the "tiny tyrant" He might of been "tiny" coming in at a mere 7 ft. in height, 17 feet long and weighing bout 1 ton. Tho, that's not my definition of tiny!

 Nanotyrannus lived in the United States in the Late Cretaceous Period 67-65 millions of years ago. Nanotyrannus was a great hunter, he had sharp claws and knife-like teeth, powerful neck muscles and was a swift and agile predator. Their favorite prey were the hadrosaurs that had the pleasure of living with them. They had great vision and depth perception due to their large eyes which looked forward. 

Many paleontologists now believe that Nanotyrannus was in fact a juvenile Tyrannosaurus Rex and not a separate genus of dinosaur. Partially because of the skull bones not being fused together indicating a young animal. Others believe that they might be a type of huge Dromaeosaur.

Dinosaur room and facts about t-rex

Hello my name is Dewy. People call me Dew, Dewy, Dalton. I have a lot of nicknames. I'm a new blogger. I'm blogging about dinosaur's on my blog. When I grow up I want to be a Paleontologist. I love Dinosaurs and Ice Age animals too.

T-Rex is the baddest Dinosaur ever on earth. The Tyrannosaurus Rex also known as the T-Rex had 60 teeth. The length of his teeth were 9 inches about the size of a banana. The length of his mouth was four feet. They had strong muscles in their jaws that made their bite more powerful then a lion's bite. How cool is that. He lived 65 to 68 million years ago in the Mesozoic Era. Even though they weighed seven tons they could still run faster then a rabbit at speeds of 25 mph according to Paleontologist. T-Rex is tall as five buses. They are 40 feet long/height and their hips height was 20 feet tall. T-Rex name means "Tyrant Lizard King" because T-Rex is the king of the predators                                                                                                                                                                                    http://www.history.com/shows/jurassic-fight-club-archived/interactives/dinopedia

I will be back to talk about more Dino's later. Please tell me what your favorite Dinosaurs are and why.
