Artists impression of Tyrannosaurus & Stegosaurus
An artists impression of Stegosaurus (foreground) and Tyrannosaurus. These ancient reptiles lived in North America during the Upper Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, between 195 and 65 million years ago. Stegosaurus was a herbivore. It was protected by its bony plates, spurs and spines and had strong hindlegs. It probably returned to four-footed locomotion from the bipedal gait of its ancestors. Tyrannosaurus was carnivorous. It walked and jumped on its hindlegs and stood about five metres tall. The forelegs were small and poorly developed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an artist's interpretation of two iconic prehistoric creatures, the Tyrannosaurus and Stegosaurus. Transporting us back to North America during the Upper Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, between 195 and 65 million years ago, it offers a glimpse into a world long gone. In the foreground stands the majestic Stegosaurus, a herbivore adorned with bony plates, spurs, and spines that served as its natural armor. With robust hindlegs suggesting strength and agility, this ancient creature likely reverted from its ancestors' bipedal gait to four-footed locomotion. Beside it looms the fearsome Tyrannosaurus Rex - a carnivorous predator that ruled over its domain. Standing at an impressive five meters tall on its powerful hindlegs, this apex predator possessed small forelimbs that were poorly developed in comparison to its massive frame. The intricate details captured by Science Photo Library allow us to appreciate these magnificent beasts in all their glory. It is through such artistic impressions that we can better understand and visualize our planet's rich history of life forms. As we contemplate this image, let us marvel at how these dinosaurs once roamed our Earth millions of years ago—reminders of nature's incredible diversity throughout time.
