Tyrannosaurus rex is a genus of coelurosaurian theropod dinosaur. The species tyrannosaurus rex (rex meaning “king” in Latin), often called T. rex or T-rex, is one of the most well-represented of the large theropods.
Tyrannosaurus lived throughout what is now western North America, on what was then an island continent known as Laramidia. Tyrannosaurus had a much wider range than other tyrannosaurids.
Fossils are found in a variety of rock formations dating to the Maastrichtian age of the upper Cretaceous Period, 68 to 66 million years ago.
Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the largest land carnivores of all time. One of the largest and the most complete specimens, nicknamed Sue (FMNH PR2081), is located at the Field Museum of Natural History.
Sue measured 40–42 ft. long, was 12 ft. tall at the hips, and estimated to have weighed between 9.3 short tons. A specimen nicknamed Scotty (RSM P2523.8), located at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, is reported to measure 43 ft. in length.
