What's the SMALLEST Tyrannosaurid?

Tyrannosaurus rex is probably the most famous of all dinosaurs, and the largest land predator to have ever lived on Earth. That said, there is so much about T-Rex that you don't yet know, but that you will never be able to unsee after today. And what are the other members of the Tyrannosaurid family? Let's find out!

@@anastasiamerrya6857 This isn’t really true. Preservation of feathers really depends on the rock its preserved in and dinosaurs don’t typically have the same integument across their bodies (Ornithomimids seemingly had scaly legs,bellies and undersides of their tails while the rest was feathered). Just because an animal hasn’t got preserved evidence for feathers yet doesn’t mean it didn’t have them! Considering its likely feathers are an ancestral trait to Dinosaurs and Ornithodirans as a whole, its plausible. Plus, the skin preservation is an incredibly tiny patch, less than a dime. So it really isn’t enough to rule out fluff. Its worth noting though that on an animal as large as Tyrannosaurus it likely would’ve only had a peach fuzz, as heavy integument could cause thermoregulatory issues. Think of hair on Elephants!

@adelyn8943 Жыл бұрын

@@anastasiamerrya6857 Its okay dw! That may be true, but again, it depends on the preservation. For example, many species coming from various formations in China such as the Tyrannosauroid Yutyrannus do have fluff preservation. But you need to remember these animals were preserved by volcanic ash, something far more efficient at preserving soft tissue than the mud and rock Tyrannosaurus has been found in in North America. It’s likely why we have only found this one imprint and why it is so tiny. Which, compared to the skin preservation of its prey, is strange that we don’t have more. If Tyrannosaurus had a little fuzz (Prehistoric Planet’s T.rex did and its a good example of what I mean) it’s not super likely we will find it in as great a preservation status if at all. But one tiny patch of skin doesn’t rule it out, considering its a part of a family that is ancestrally fuzzy and its hard to lose such traits in that period of time.

@nonope7359 Жыл бұрын

Yeah I have no idea what he's talking about. We have skin impressions of multiple Tyrannosaurids alone. Also, the Tyrannosaurid skin impressions we have are from all over the body. None of these animals had feathers. Feathers of the gaps won't save you with Tyrannosaurids.

@sampagano205 Жыл бұрын

@@NitroIndigo basically the opposite is the current understanding. The larger an animal is the easier maintaining your own body heat becomes. Their increased volume more than makes up for a large surface area, so while they do still require a ton of energy their energy use is very efficient. This is combined with them having a lot of adaptations to reduce their overall mass, like their body having a bunch of internal air sacs. Which contributed to them actually being lighter than you would expect and further reduced heat loss through their respiratory system.

Palaeontologists are geniuses. They name everything like they're 5, knowing that they're the key to future Dino lovers! Everyone loves dinos as a kid - capture their hearts early and keep it going through adulthood!

A study just came out that showed the “weird shaped keyhole eye socket” increased the amount of force that a tyrannosaurus skull could withstand from a bite. So, keyhole orbits = stronger bite.

Alioramus! What an adorable, small little creature that could probably still rip me to shreds.

@Andrey.Ivanov Жыл бұрын

It's interesting that in people's minds dinosaurs are so much associated with being huge that some are willing to call Alioramus a "small little creature" despite the fact that it weighted as much as a polar bear.
