Tyrannosaurus

Characteristics ~ ~ ~ ~

Oh boy there is a lot to cover with this one Tyrannosaurus Rex somehow manages to live up to all of the hype that surrounds it and manages to be cooler in real life than he is in the movies. Tyrannosaurus has a bite force of 45,000 psi, enough force to easily crush cars and practically make your body explode from the pressure. Up to 60 sharp serrated teeth the largest being twelve inches long and on average being each is the size of a banana. Tyrannosaurus Rex would need to eat at least one person a day to maintain its metabolism. Tyrannosaurs had a unique growth curve Juvenile Tyrannosaurs would be built for speed having long legs for their size running at estimated speeds of around 23-32 mph, but as they reached adulthood they would quickly bulk up becoming slower but heavier allowing them to take on larger prey like Edmontosaurus or Triceratops. Adult Tyrannosaurs would not run frequently to avoid injury prefering to walk at 3mph and have short bursts of speed around 13 mph. Tyrannosaurus has had quite a few skin impressions found revealing it did have scalily skin at least as an adult. Mostly Tyrannosaurus feet had skin membrane pads along the bottom of them found in footprints that would cushion the sound of their footsteps and allow them to walk very quietly for an animal that weighs __ tons. They have small arms with only two fingers but they were surprisingly powerful being able to curl 220 pounds and bench 400.
