Model head of the dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus rex
Tyrannosaurus rex. Model head of the carnivorous dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus rex. Rows of dagger-like teeth line the open jaws of this life-size model as it prepares to attack its prey. Tyrannosaurus rex (the name translates to: " King of the terrible lizards" ) was one of the largest and most fear- some dinosaur predators. It lived during the Mesozoic period some 65-75 million years ago. As a two-legged carnivore it could pursue its prey by running on powerful hindlegs; its jaws and teeth were adapted for meat-eating and could inflict terrible wounds. Tyrannosaurus rex reached 12 metres in length. Photographed at the Natural History Museum, London

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a model head of the infamous Tyrannosaurus rex, the "King of the terrible lizards". With its jaws wide open, revealing rows of dagger-like teeth, this life-size replica exudes an aura of imminent attack on its unsuspecting prey. Tyrannosaurus rex, a carnivorous dinosaur that roamed the Earth during the Mesozoic period around 65-75 million years ago, was undoubtedly one of the largest and most fearsome predators to have ever existed. Its powerful hindlegs enabled it to pursue its victims with remarkable speed and agility. Equipped with specialized jaws and teeth designed for meat-eating, this formidable creature could inflict devastating wounds upon its unfortunate targets. Measuring up to an astonishing 12 meters in length, Tyrannosaurus rex strikes awe into our hearts even today. This photograph was taken at London's renowned Natural History Museum and offers us a glimpse into prehistoric times when these magnificent creatures ruled over their domains. As we marvel at this incredible display of paleontological artistry captured by Science Photo Library, let us reflect on the sheer power and majesty embodied by Tyrannosaurus rex - forever etched in history as one of nature's most extraordinary creations.
