Tyrannosaurus rex
Tyrannosaurus rex. Artwork showing a Tyrannosaurus rex (T. rex) feeding on a dead Triceratops dinosaur. T. rex was a large carnivorous dinosaur that lived in North America at the end of the Cretaceous period. It grew to up to 15 metres in length and weighed up to 7 tonnes. Despite having huge powerful jaws and sharp teeth, T. rex was thought to be slow and fed mainly as a scavenger. Triceratops was a herbivorous dinosaur common in the late Cretaceous period, around 70 million years ago

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a dramatic scene from the prehistoric era. The artwork depicts a fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex, known as T. rex, feasting on the remains of a fallen Triceratops dinosaur. With its immense size and weight, reaching up to 15 meters in length and weighing around 7 tonnes, T. rex was undoubtedly one of the most formidable carnivorous dinosaurs that roamed North America during the Cretaceous period. Contrary to popular belief, recent scientific studies suggest that T. rex may have been more of a scavenger than an active predator due to its relatively slow speed. This illustration captures this aspect as it portrays the mighty creature taking advantage of an already deceased Triceratops for sustenance. Triceratops, on the other hand, was a herbivorous dinosaur commonly found during this time period approximately 70 million years ago. Its presence in this image emphasizes the diverse range of species that coexisted in these ancient ecosystems. The intricate details and vibrant colors within this artwork bring these long-extinct creatures back to life before our eyes. It serves as a reminder of Earth's rich biological history and highlights how paleontologists continue to unravel mysteries surrounding these fascinating creatures through their meticulous research efforts.
