749 Questions
There is some discussion as to whether T Rex was a predator or scavenger. if a predator he may have been an ambush predator - waiting for prey to pass closely enough to grab. His weight and other biomechanics shortcomings would have precluded T Rex pursuing his prey over a distance.The younger and smaller T Rexes may have been more agile and could pursue prey.
Is gigantosarus stronger than t rex?
yes because giganotosaurus was the biggest and the strongest carnivore on land but t - Rex bite force was stronger than giganotosaurus but size matters
answer .com is so dumb they don't know any thing about math they give bad answer just saying.
A T-rex, or Tyrannosaurus rex, was a dinosaur with skin of a crocodile-like texture. They were approximately forty feet tall, but their jaws and mouths were massive in proportion to their body. They stood on two legs and had two small arms.
A Tyrannosaurus rex's foot was quite large, measuring about 3 feet (0.9 meters) long and 2 feet (0.6 meters) wide. The foot had three main toes, each equipped with sharp claws, which helped the dinosaur support its massive weight and capture prey. Overall, the size of a T. rex foot contributed to its formidable presence as one of the largest land predators of its time.
How does a t- rex dinosaur get up?
Answer
I think we can look to the birds (avian dinosaurs) for the answer as they can stand up without the aid of arms. It is simply a matter of getting one's limbs below the center of gravity before extending them. I am not aware of any studies suggesting tyrannosaurs could not do this. Furthermore, tyrannosaurs would have had the additional aid of their tails. From skeletal evidence and albertosaur trackways (in which the tails did not drag), it is clear tyrannosaur tails acted as counter-balances--10,000-pound walking, teeter-totters. The tail would have helped to keep the center of balance back on the body as the hindlimbs were moved into position underneath.
Clearly tyrannosaurs got up at least once during their lives (at birth) and there is no reason to believe they could not throughout life--armed with pathetic arms or not.
What is the best method for hunting tyrannosaurus with traps and shotguns?
If there are sturdy trees: a shot from an elevated position would give the best chance for a headshot.
More detailed guide
Follow these instructions very carefully. Any mistake on the part of a hunter could result in an immediate, excruciatingly painful death.
- Set two foot-hold traps in the path of the Rex.
- Place an XXXXXXL connibear trap next to them.
- The above two will most probably fail to capture your cute quarry. Not to worry! Just make a 500x500 foot dead-fall trap next to it.
- Now your prey is trapped!
- The shotgun part is a bit problematic, though. You can't kill a Rex with just a shotgun.
- Now, It's a good time to use your contacts at the US Air Force. Call for an MQ-1 Predator.
- Give the trapped beast a wide berth i.e. at least five hundred meters.
- Order the controller at USAF to fire a Hellfire missile at the dinosaur.
- Hopefully, the T. Rex is dead by now. Walk up to it and shoot it with your shotgun for good measure.
Now you can claim to have killed a Tyrannosaurus rexusing traps and shotguns. (I forgot to mention that you'll need a hot-tub time travel machine or a real life version of Jurassic Park to encounter this type of prey. Happy Hunting!)

As detailed in the classic story A Gun for Dinosaur(1956), even large caliber rifles (Nitro Express .450, .470, or .700; .416 Weatherby or Remington Magnum) would have difficulty stopping a T-Rex, much less the slug shotguns typical of 19th century big game hunters. Heavy gauge cable netting or a deep trap could work, to at least partly immobilize your prehistoric quarry. Best bet would still be an anti-tank missile or 30mm autocannon.
