Product Information

This is the rex of rexes," said Scott Persons, lead author of the study and postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Biological Sciences. "There is considerable size variability among Tyrannosaurus. Some individuals were lankier than others and some were more robust. Scotty exemplifies the robust. Take careful measurements of its legs, hips, and even shoulder, and Scotty comes out a bit heftier than other T. rex specimens." Our son generally breaks things with moving parts on day one; This has held up beautifully to his rough-handling and frequent destructive terrible-twos episodes. If you’ve signed up for a Twinkl membership, you’ll be able to use this T-Rex colouring sheet with unlimited instant access. Why were T-Rex dinosaurs so powerful? It is not just Scotty's size and weight that set it apart. The Canadian mega rex also lays claim to seniority.

The skeleton was first discovered in 1991, when paleontologists including T. rex expert and UAlberta professor Phil Currie were called in on the project. But the hard sandstone that encased the bones took more than a decade to remove—only now have scientists been able to study Scotty fully-assembled and realize how unique a dinosaur it is. I think there will always be bigger discoveries to be made," said Persons "But as of right now, this particular Tyrannosaurus is the largest terrestrial predator known to science."

But age is relative, and T. rexes grew fast and died young. Scotty was estimated to have only been in its early 30s when it died. For those of you who fancy something more creative, you could encourage children to use this sheet as the basis of a collage. This would be a fun way to experiment with artistic techniques and textures.

By Tyrannosaurus standards, it had an unusually long life. And it was a violent one," Persons said. "Riddled across the skeleton are pathologies—spots where scarred bone records large injuries."
