+ | === '''Tyrannosaurus Rex'''! The most popular dinosaur in the world! A large and strong carnivore, it is an intimidating creature, with ''80 '' heath, and a strong bite that lets it deal ''20 HP'' of damage! '''Tyrannosaurus''' will wander around the world, being almost solitary hunters. However, they will occasionally flock in groups of 2, since that's as much as they tolerate. Any third '''Tyrannosaurus''' that is unlucky enough to cross paths with the pair will be attacked and presumably killed. They will also occasionally let out a mighty roar, and may even roar with their head raised, presumably communicating with any nearby '''Tyrannosaurus''' in the area. When hungry, '''Tyrannosaurus''' can eat meat from feeders, or hunt just about anything they find. When thirsty, '''Tyrannosaurus''' can drink water from nearby sources or from the rain. If a male and a female '''Tyrannosaurus''' encounter and are left undisturbed by any third '''Tyrannosaur''', they will<span style="font-weight:normal;"> </span>[[Breeding|'''breed''']]<span style="font-weight:normal;"> every now and then, laying 2-4 eggs per clutch. '''Tyrannosaurus''' is not '''''imprintable''''' (see [[Taming|'''Taming''']]), because of its short temper and usually aggressive lifestyle. </span> === |

⚫ | === Arguably the most famous and most popular dinosaur of them all, Tyrannosaurus rex was a massive theropod that lived at the very end of the Late Cretaceous, around 67-66 million years ago, in what is now North America. Its Latin name means "tyrant lizard king". It grew about 12 metres in length, and an estimated 7-9 tons in weight. === |
||
⚫ | Its skull measured around 1.5 metres (5 feet) in length. With a mouth full of teeth about the same size and shape as bananas, and a bite force of around 200000 newtons (about 20 tons), this carnivore was capable of crunching its way through bone as if it were cardboard. Its eyes faced forward, giving it binocular vision, and it also had one of the best senses of smell of any dinosaur. |

⚫ | These dinosaurs <u>WILL NOT</u> tolerate other large carnivores in their territory, not even of a different species, and should therefore <u>NEVER</u> be kept in multi-species large dinosaur exhibits!

⚫ | === '''Tyrannosaurus Rex''' is a must-have for any ambitious park, but be careful, as this animal is not to be taken lightly! This dinosaur is large, strong, notoriously bad-tempered, and requires huge quantities of meat on a regular basis. These animals are fiercely territorial and mostly solitary, but have sometimes been known to stick together in mated pairs. These pairs are closely bonded, and will not usually separate unless there's not enough prey around to support both partners. === |

− | Tyrannosaurus is currently the largest and strongest carnivore in the mod, with health around ''80 HP'', and attack damage of around ''20 HP''. It'll tolerate being in pairs, but it will attack and try to kill any additional Tyrannosaurus that it detects nearby. It is '''''not imprintable''''' (see [[Taming]]), due to its short temper and aggressive lifestyle. |

⚫ | === In order to house a '''T.Rex''', you will need a very large territory with a mix of forest and open country, surrounded by thick reinforced stone walls, high-security electric fencing, or immensely reinforced steel barriers. Habitat enrichment (specifically, live prey) is also essential, as these relatively intelligent dinosaurs get bored easily. === |
