Just wondering. I've been trying to research it, but I've come up with nil, and I'm eager to learn more.

(Damn scientists saying that the T. rex was a craposaurus carrion-eater...I don't care if it was, it defeats the purpose of having a T. rex if it isn't some gigantic killing machine...and that was a random babbling. It's time for bed.)

Funny when i say to people birds are descended from "dinosaurs" threw millions of years of evolution, they laugh at me. I look at my parrot and then think about the classic depiction of a t-rex and all is so clear to me... happy

Might have something to do with teh psilocybin, lols... What the f**k?

I believe that T-rex was opportunistic. Like lions, it was a predator but if it could swipe a carcass from a smaller predator, then it sure as hell would.

I also believe that T-rex was capable of running.

There's a mammoth, and there's the mastadon. Mastadon's had a more reddish fur, and were smaller, more humped over, and had their tusks were shapped differently. Their ears were also smaller and rounder than those of a mammoth
