        Do you want to learn about the most famous and biggest meat-eating dinosaur of all? It is the T-rex (tear-on-a-sour-us  REX)! If you do, man you will love this web-page. This dinosaur is known for being the fiercest and meanest one of all. The T-rex was 50 ft. tall and he ate 500 ponds of skin and bones in one bite! This dinosaurs’ top planet eater was the Brontosaurus, he loved to eat the Brontosaurus because it was one of the biggest plant-eater dinosaur. The T-rex was among the last dinosaurs to disappear. It lived about 70,000 million years ago.

            The T-rex lived in a humid semi- tropical environment; it had opened forests with nearby rivers and costal-forested swamp. The seasons were mild.

            This dinosaur had an enormously big appetite. The teeth were designed to tear flesh to be swallowed without being chewed. If all the dinosaurs were still to exist except the plant-eaters the T-rex would not be able to survive.

         The Tyrannosaurus Rex is an enormous meat-eating creature. This dinosaur was 50 feet long  and 45 feet high. It was also taller than a two story house. Now for the arms; don’t even get me started with those. These tiny front legs were so small they couldn’t even reach the mouth, imagine you not able to eat with your hands. The tail was slim, stiff, and pointed. The tail was very helpful in some ways like for instance it provided balance and allowed quick turns while running. Wow, you won’t believe this, the T-rex  weighed more than 4 metric tons. This dinosaur’s skin was scaly and bumpy like an alligator’s skin. The T-rex’s skin has been described as a “lightly pebbled skin”.

           Even though the T-rex has lived about170 million years ago, but people are still fascinating by this amazing dinosaur!
