Tyrannosaurus Rex
One of the most dangerous dinosaurs was Tyrannosaurus rex. It looked like a huge lizard with sharp teeth. It lived over 60 million years ago.
From its nose to the end of its tail, Tyrannosaurus rex was as long as a school bus. It was taller than a house and weighed more than an aeroplane. Its head was as long as a kitchen table.
Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the biggest meat-eating dinosaurs. It could eat hundreds of pounds of meat in one bite. Animals that eat meat have sharp teeth. Tyrannosaurus rex had 60 of them! Some of its teeth were as big as a banana. When Tyrannosaurus rex lost a tooth, it grew a new one.
Tyrannosaurus rex stood on two powerful legs. It also had two small arms. Its strong tail helped to keep it from falling over. It might be fun to see a live Tyrannosaurus rex, but I wouldn’t want to meet one. Would you?
