What is the most ferocious dinosaur in the world?

The most powerful dinosaur in the world is: Tyrannosaurus rex (an extinct late Cretaceous reptile)

1: Tyrannosaurus rex is the largest of the tyrannosaurids. The body length is about 11.5-14.7 meters. The average hip height is about 4 meters. The highest hip height can reach about 5.2 meters, and the highest head height is nearly 6 meters. The average weight is about 9 tons (the ecological average is about 7.6 tons), the heaviest is 14.85 tons, and the maximum head length is about 1.55 meters. The bite force is generally 90,000 to 120,000 Newtons, and the maximum at the end of the mouth is about 200,000 Newtons. It is also the strongest carnivorous dinosaur.

2: The genus name of Tyrannosaurus rex means "cruel lizard king" in ancient Greek, and the species name means king in Latin. Once known as the largest carnivorous dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus Rex's head was 1.5m long, with 60 10 cm long fangs inside. The head was the most terrifying weapon of Tyrannosaurus Rex, but its forelimbs were severely degenerated and very short. With two fingers, it can only lift nearly 60 pounds.

3: Tyrannosaurus rex was at the top of the food chain in the late Cretaceous. At that time, all kinds of dinosaurs in North America could basically become its prey. Sometimes they would also attack long-necked predators like Alamosaurus. Grass dinosaur. Pachycephalosaurus is generally not included in the diet of Tyrannosaurus rex due to its small size. Ankylosaurs were rarely preyed upon by Tyrannosaurus rex. Some other carnivorous dinosaurs distributed in North America at that time, such as the dwarf Tyrannosaurus, may have some competition with Tyrannosaurus rex, but they are far from the opponent of Tyrannosaurus rex.

Extended information:

(1) In 1902, Barnum Brown, an American dinosaur fossil collector, discovered a giant dinosaur in Hale Creek, Montana, USA. carnivore skeleton while he was a staff member at the National Museum of American History. Over the next two summers, he excavated the skeleton from the solid sandstone. Since the bones were quite heavy, he built a special sled pulled by horses and transported the bones to a nearby road. What he found was the first Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton.

(2) In 1910, an expedition led by Barnum Brown began large-scale collection in the Red Deer River Canyon in Alberta, Canada. Brown found extremely well-preserved skeleton fossils of Styracosaurus, Helminosaurus and Centrosaurus there, as well as some dinosaur skin fossils.

(3) On December 25, 2013, British and Australian researchers said that a Tyrannosaurus rex pubic bone fossil was discovered in Australia, which is evidence that Tyrannosaurus rex also once lived on the southern hemisphere continent.

The species to which this fossil belongs has been tentatively named NMV P186069. Researchers speculate that its owner was between 6.5-7.2 meters tall and weighed about 5.9 tons, while the average Tyrannosaurus rex could be more than 12 meters long and weigh more than 9 tons. Although they are very different in size, both have huge heads, degenerated forelimbs and well-developed hind limbs.
