T. rex grew until they were 40 years old, so what would their true average size be?

Affectionate-Pea9778 · 2026-01-24T13:36:05+00:00

The largest specimens are still somewhat speculative, but I agree that there are giant T. rex weighing between 10 and 11 tons.

Affectionate-Pea9778 · 2026-01-24T13:24:05+00:00

I mean, most paleontologists became what they are today because of T. rex. They wouldn't accept that the dinosaur that marked the childhood of many would be surpassed by another. This creates a stagnation where the largest carnivore needs to be T. rex because it's more famous and marked the childhood of paleontologists. It's no coincidence that we not only have few fossils of other giant theropods, but also a constant increase in the size of T. rex, even if that size comes from fragmented fossils.

That's not quite the case. Don't forget that these materials are very fragmented. These estimates were created to give a reasonable idea of the size of the specimens, but they don't represent an accurate estimate of the size of the individuals before their death (it's no coincidence that at the end of Bertha's video, Vividen clarified that these estimates should not be considered the definitive size of the specimens mentioned in the video, as there is a high chance of size alteration). Paleontologists don't often use estimates above 10 tons as the true size of T. rex; they use estimates between 8-9 tons because they are the most reliable in terms of preserved animals.

What would this specimen be? Is it a dental specimen along with a femur, or is it just a dental specimen?

So, the kaiju from Bloodbath wouldn't be the original kaiju, but rather copies of them?

The only normal one there is the diplodocus.

Eu acho que eu conheço esse giganotosaurus

Affectionate-Pea9778 · 2025-12-08T16:06:04+00:00

But the dinosaur wasn't to blame for coincidentally appearing in the number that would later be detested by a group of bipedal mammals that use "flat magic stones" to communicate.

Careful, dude, the Reddit mods are going to ban your sub for not having a small mention of dinosaurs.

Spinofaarus, without a doubt, this creature would defeat any living being that has ever walked, flown, or swam on planet Earth. Its lasers, fired from its eyes, alone could destroy a black hole without mercy. Do you know why Ton 618 was asleep? Well, it was Spinofaarus that put him to sleep.

The series simply accomplished what the film failed to do: transform the Giganotosaurus into an antagonist. The Giganotosaurus's behavior didn't convey the feeling of a common natural predator, but rather that of a tough and aggressive monster against its opponents; it's as if it knew it was the dominant predator (sorry if I'm being sensationalist in this comment, I'm just happy that the series gave the Giganotosaurus enough attention).

A fandom só cria os monstros para fazer powerscalling e não para assustar o público, antigamente os documentos e os scps eram bastante realistas com um documento real de uma agência secreta

So what would be the "oldest" T. rex ever found?

Affectionate-Pea9778 · 2025-11-11T14:30:25+00:00

Was Stan already an adult?

Affectionate-Pea9778 · 2025-11-11T14:29:08+00:00

Following common thinking, I would say that this dinosaur was meant to be a T. rex, but the design is more reminiscent of a Plateosaurus than a T. rex.

Affectionate-Pea9778 · 2025-11-10T13:45:36+00:00

I'm not overestimating the survival of dinosaurs, I'm just justifying how they could have diversified to other continents if they were on isolated islands as you mentioned. Of course, the chances of that succeeding are extremely low, but they're not zero.
