The specimen's considerable size places it within the range of known T. rex individuals, suggesting the presence of large tyrannosaurids during the Campanian stage (~75 million years ago), a temporal range earlier than the established Maastrichtian age (~68–66 Ma) for Tyrannosaurus rex. However, the exact age and provenance of CM 9401 remain ...
This sudden change in growth rate may indicate physical maturity, a hypothesis that is supported by the discovery of medullary tissue in the femur of an 18-year-old T. rex from Montana (MOR 1125, also known as "B-rex"). [51] Medullary tissue is found only in female birds during ovulation, indicating that "B-rex" was of reproductive age. [52]
His findings, published in 2019, yielded that Scotty is the largest (in weight and length), having out-measured the previous largest known Tyrannosaurus rex: Sue of the Chicago Field Museum (FMNH 2081). [13] After prolonged study of the growth patterns in the bones, "Scotty" was also declared as one of the oldest known T. rex fossils at 30 ...

T. rex was fully grown at around 18-21 years. Perhaps the largest-known Tyrannosaurus, a specimen named Sue at the Field Museum in Chicago, is 40-1/2 feet (12.3 meters) long.
Montana's T. rex (also known as "Peck's rex", "Peckrex", "Rigby's rex" and Tyrannosaurus "imperator") is the nickname given to a fossil specimen found in Montana in 1997. [54] The discovery was made by Louis E. Tremblay on 4 July 1997 working under the supervision of J. Keith Rigby Jr. who led the excavation and bone preparation.
