How do we know tyrannosaurus are a carnivore?

Because it's skull showed sharp teeth which shows that it teared meat. That makes it a carnivore.

What is the dinosaur t-Rex a meat eater?

yes. In fact the shape of the teeth (needle-like) proves that it stayed a large portion of it's life in water. So, what does this have to do with it's teeth? The teeth are perfectly designed to catch fish!

How long did tyrannosaurus rex live for?

It depends on the age of the Tyrannosaurus in question.

The largest known from a fairly complete skeleton is Sue, which reached a length of 12.8 metres. However, a skull of a T. rex, MOR 008, is significantly larger, and using the skull-body length ratio system we can deduce a slightly longer creature.

And it's A Tyrannosaurus rex, not an. I mean seriously man, come on!

Who would win t-rex or the giant squid?

This is very close, but I'll say crocodile. The squid is longer up to 43 ft but is only 800 pounds. while a crocodile is not that long, only 23 ft but is is alot heavier, at 3000 pounds. Also the squids weapon wont harm the crocodile that badly because of its hard skin, while the crocodiles 5000 psi bite of a croc can kill the squid, so croc wins.

What size brain does a Tyrannosaurus rex have?

Stegosaurus had a brain that weighed about 2.8 oz, the same as a dog's brain. That is very small considering that the Stegosaurus was 30 feet long and weighed 5.5 tons. People often say that its brain was the size of a walnut or a pea, but that exaggerates its small size.

What was the t rexs tail used for?

Most tails are thought to have been used for balancing.

What ate the t-rex?

T-rex had no natural predators, and only 3 dinosaurs out of every kind that lived could have a chance of defeating t-rex. These include Triceratops, ankylosaurus, Brachiosaurs(+which lived in the Jurassic period not cretacious). Not Spinosaurs, inspite of the famous Jurassic Park 3. So unless a t-rex died of natural causes nothing would be dining on Tyrannosaurus Rex.

What if a Tyrannosaurus had large wings?

A tyrannosaurus rex did not have wings. You may be thinking of a pterosaur.

What animal can defeat a tyrannosaurus rex?

Naturally, a young T-Rex unguarded by it's parents could easily fall prey to most large predators.

As for an adult Tyrannosaur, besides a human with a highly powered weapon, the only other likely candidates for land animals would be poisonous snakes, or a ridiculously huge pride of lions, in which most prides rarely get this large to begin with, however, big groups have proven themselves capable of taking down adult elephants, which are roughly the similar size of a T-Rex, though such occurrences rarely happen, differences would include an elephant being supported on four legs while the T-Rex only has two. When lions go after adult elephants, they try to crowd on top of the animal and overwhelm it, causing it to collapse to the ground (by the sheer weight of the pride rather than from exhaustion) Then they bite the trunk, opposed to the throat like most other prey.

Even if the pride managed to bring the T-Rex down, a Tyrannosaur has a very large throat and windpipe, a lion would have a difficult time squeezing the windpipe shut, an event could lead to the lions actually giving up. In the end, the lions successfully can bring down the dinosaur, but actually killing it would be a whole different story. Unless the lions were really patient and they simply waited until the T-Rex died from thirst, starvation or even exhaustion, such an event is very unlikely.

What does Rex stand for?

It isn't short for anything. Rex is the Latin word for King. It can also be a version of "Reginald" that was Rex Harrisons birth name.

Did the T rex dinosaur have a large or small brain steam?

no! they did not because their head is a bit thin and a elephants head is fat so elephants have the largest brain on earth or maybe not

IF YOU'R ASKING WHICH SEA AND LAND ANIMALS HAVE THE LARGEST BRAINS I'LL TELL YOU. It is a whale shark because it's fater than everything on earth.

Who would win in a fight if Tyrannosaurus Rex fought Giganotosaurus?

i'd say tyrannosaurus because it had a much stronger bite force than giganotosaurus did. though it's possible for giganotosaurus to beat t-rex. but the might not have fought because t-rex lived in north America and g-rex(giganotosaurus) lived in south America. g-rex was a pack hunter. so 1 t-rex wouldn't stand a chance against a pack of g-rexes.

Where can you see a T-Rex skeleton?

Most natural history museums would have mounted T-rex displays, however, these are usually casts of actual bones as well as casts that are of what the bones are believed to have looked like. However, they also probably have some individual fossil bones in display cases.

At the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, Illinois, they have Sue the T-rex on display. Sue is the largest and most complete fossilized T-rex skeleton ever found (however, there would be a few fake bones even in her display because she is only mostly complete. Also, due to damage to her bones shortly after death, the skull was distorted, and therefor a cast of her skull is used in the display.

Did the T-Rex have an amniotic egg?

Yes, because the common ancestors had amniotic eggs, so the trait was passes, to the t rex, the caiman and the parrot...in fact, all tetrapods with he exception of the amphibians and mammals have them. The mammals (except for the Monotremes) give live birth.
