oh boy, that guy works at Sereno's Lab too, meaning he's seen the new Spinosaurus discovered at the end of last year...

I just realised Raul Ramos was credited in the paper. So weird a guy I followed for their art on DA ages ago is now technically a published scientist.

I love how so many different groups/ researchers were willing to share those skull models. It's kinda like a tyrannosaur version of Smash Bros XD

"We assumed similar average bone density in the theropods' crania to that of a hard-biting Alligator. We therefore assumed similar stiffness and Poisson's ratios to Alligator's (Porro et al., 2011) because these properties are proportional to density (Table S13). Lower densities and stiffness, possible in lighter-skulled birds, would result in linearly greater strain but would not greatly affect stresses (Strait et al., 2005) in similarly shaped structures."

@@ericknorskr8568Ha, ha, well, thank you for the flowers. It’s called delegating. But it states what I was suspecting. It is exceedingly hard stress testing a natural structure with variable density. I’m sure it yields a decent idea of its strength, but I would be surprised if the actual location of fracture wouldn’t be within a margin of error. However, these are just my two cents, thank you for looking it up.

that reminds me of something i heard from a T-Rex Palaentologist, who on a interview with a JP fan, comparing the real animal's research with the movies, that'd the T-Rex if they were very old, they could be even more hulking, with a potential darker coat of scales. Similar to that of crocodiles (or was it alligators? forgot)

I know the video you're talking about, and it's a fair point to make. However, it would depend on if they reached a certain size and basically stopped growing, or if they continued to grow, only very slowly after a certain point, their entire lives. We know Tyrannosaurs seem to have a very bird/mammal like growth rate and growth curve, but we don't know if they actually stopped growing once they reached adult size or not, at least I'm not aware of any research done into that.

Crocodilians do eventually stop growing, so why not tyrannosaurs?

Fantastic Video as always!! :) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ❤️💖❤️💖

Looking at all those feathered dinos all I could think was, "did they pluck their prey like cats or regugitate the feathers like owls?"

The path to perfection

Kinda reminds me the 'growth stages' of V-Rex that presented in the King Kong A natural History of skull island book ( which is an amazing speculative evolution book full of epic illustrations I recommend it to everyone ! ) It is very ironic that we have also publications that mature/adults T rexes were not able to keep up with their adolescent or younger specimens at all! Search about it. It is an interesting read

@@rodrigopinto6676 Entirely your own personalized opinion; albeit a very wrong one. The meg-theropods you have mentioned like Giganatosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus and its relatives existed, thrived and dominated way further than any Tyrannosaurus. Additionally they were nowhere sluggish, slower and non agile akin to an adult tyrannosaurus. Additionally there were also other mega theropods such as oxalaia, saurophaganax and bahariasaurus albeit it is somewhat odd; the unnamed abelisaurids; kayentapus and more! You choose to ignore every single giant theropod in existence in favor of your fanbase esque tyranno. For the last addition the northern Africa disagrees with your false assessment. We see which theropods are able to survive in a place where the paleontologists openly called the most dangerous place on earth. Thats right Spinosaurus, Bahariasaurus; deltadromeus and Carhcarodontosaurus!

So I think from the patterns of stress in the tyrannosaur skulls mean that they evolved stronger skulls before bigger bite forces? Most of my theories turn out to be wrong to please reply and try to disprove my statement before I believe it’s good

Well since daspletosaurus has higher stress levels than the smaller tyrannosaurs Mabye that would disprove my theory but since gorgosaurus had low stress levels and I think albertosaurus had a more similar skull to gorgosaurus than daspletosaurus (In my opinion from a 20sec google search) I think daspletosaurus may have been an outlier from my theory perhaps due to competition with the other tyrannosaurus mentioned

The most recent paper reevaluated it taxonomic affinities and found out it to be distinct to Tarbosaurus, but still within Tyrannosauridae family. In other words according to that study it belongs to a distinct species of Tyrannosaurid and is valid.

Finally we have bite force estimates for one of the largest known T. rex specimens (Sue)

I understand this could be hard to infer, but sometimes different breeds of animals breed to make a new cross breed, could that have been the case for dinosaurs?

@wintersal449

Probably? Like if we for example use a Tyrannosaurus and Tarbosaurus (taking into the belief they are actuallyseperate which i believe), they probably could have, maybe even have the children be viable in reproduction. The problem you face though is that most of these animals lived in different eras and areas, and often were the only type of their species due to the niches they filled. Rex could've had other Tyrannosaurids it could meet (like Tarbo) but it'd both be unlikely to happen let alone even more unlikely they'd tried to mate. Tho with herbivores it's a little different as you can have groups of similar species that possibly could have mated or atleast tried to. Trike and Torosaurus are a possible outcome I can think of.

Tyrannosaurs were so damn amazing. Many assume by size that other bipedal carnivores of similar or greater size were more amazing. All of the senses tyrannosaurs had put them on another level even if their bite force was the same.........which it isn't. T-rex's bite force by any metric destroys anything not tyrannosaur. The skeleton strength, the presumed visual ability, the presumed sense of smell..........everything is on a different level than anything comparable. I still think those arms were for something based on eggs or babies. A t-rex carrying two eggs has little to no loss of eggs before hatching. I'm not saying I believe it......just want to put it out there. If Tyrannosaurus Rex were a familial pack animal............they were the predator of all predators ever.

Wouldn’t Tarbosaurus have a stronger bite force than Daspletosaurus? It’s bigger and potentially was adapted to specialise in Sauropods right?

With regards to their skulls, well yeah--even IF the Giga or the Carch have 'larger' heads, they're much more lightly built; a Rex skull looks like you can use it as a medieval battering ram.

“Larger” totally wrong

@bkjeong4302

9 ай бұрын

All of them could do that, actually. The reason Tyrannosaurus has a much broader set of jaws is because its jaws are specialized to remain attached to prey in a crushing death grip (which is also part of the reason for its bite force and other skull adaptations), while the jaws of carcharodontosaurs like Giga are built to bite THROUGH prey to kill it with deep open wounds, meaning that their jaws and teeth are not going to remain attached for their prey for nearly as long and thus instead need to be laterally flattened for streamlining and more efficient cutting.

​​​​​@qbgrinddddwell the thing with the arms can be explained like it is with Giga, where it's arms grew faster than its body when younger but stopped/slowed aging earlier than its body. So younger T-rex could've had longer arms comparatively to adults because their arms grew faster. I'm not an expert on Juvie rexes so idk if we have a lot of specimens with complete arms so I'm happy to be proven wrong if I am. As far as i know Nano isn't considered valid by majority of Paleontologists, but there's always a possibility of a smaller Tyrannosaurid/ine species filling a niche that competed with young rexes.
