Best Answer

The tail of a T. rex primarily served to balance the weight of the rest of its body and its massive head. Contrary to its depiction in Jurassic Park T. rex probably could not run fast.

How many attacks of t-rex on ankylosaurus?

Ankylosaurus's entire back, tail, neck, and head was covered in bony armor that was impenetrable by Tyrannosaurus. In addition, Ankylosaurus was armed with a bony tail club that would easily have been lethal to an attacking Tyrannosaurus. For these reasons, it is no surprise that Ankylosaurus fossils are never found with Tyrannosaurus bite marks, unlike the fossils of other contemporary herbivores like Edmontosaurus and Triceratops, which are frequently found to have been eaten by Tyrannosaurus. Thus, it is safe to say that Tyrannosaurus rarely, if ever, attacked Ankylosaurus.
