Bite force quotient (BFQ) is a numerical value commonly used to represent the bite force of an animal adjusted for its body mass, while also taking factors like the allometry effects. The BFQ is calculated as the regression of the quotient of an animal's bite force in newtons divided by its body mass in kilograms. [ 1 ]
Mounted skeletons of different age groups, Los Angeles Natural History Museum. The feeding behaviour of Tyrannosaurus rex has been studied extensively. The well known attributes of T. rex (its jaws, legs and overall body design) are often interpreted to be indicative of either a predatory or scavenging lifestyle, and as such the biomechanics, feeding strategies and diet of Tyrannosaurus have ...
Tyrannosaurus (/ t ɪ ˌ r æ n ə ˈ s ɔː r ə s, t aɪ-/) [a] is a genus of large theropod dinosaur.The type species Tyrannosaurus rex (rex meaning 'king' in Latin), often shortened to T. rex or colloquially T-Rex, is one of the best represented theropods.
The fastest growth rate is estimated to occur around 12–16 years of age, reaching 122 kg (269 lb) per year, based on a 1,300 kg (2,900 lb) adult, which is about a fifth of the rate for T.-rex. For Gorgosaurus , the calculated maximum growth rate is about 110 kilograms (240 lb) during the rapid growth phase, which is comparable to that of ...
A single black-footed cat can dispatch between 10 and 14 rodents or birds in a single night, and they have a k*ll success rate of about 60%, which is about three times the success rate of a ...
Scanning an endo cast from a Tyrannosaurus rex skull, scientists theorize that Tyrannosaurus rex had a brain similar to that of a modern-day alligator. Tyrannosaurus had nice vision, and a big sense of smell. Tyrannosaurus could bite through bone, at a bite force of at least four tons per square inch.
The Galapagos large ground finch would have eaten the tyrannosaurus for breakfast if they were the same size. This tiny bird has a bite 320 times stronger than T-rex Skip to main content
Victoria stands as one of the largest T.rex’s mounted in the world at 40 feet in length and was estimated to be approximately 10.5 tons or 21,000 lbs. at death. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Heinrich Mallison, Victoria’s lead paleontologist and researcher at the Center of Natural History, Hamburg University said, “ The discovery of Victoria has provided ...
