Description: This is a very small shard/fragment of an authentic Tyrannosaurus Rex tooth in a great display case! The tooth piece was found on the famous Hell Creek Formation in the Western United States. The small tooth piece is just over 1/4" long. It is a very small fragment. This looks fantastic under microscope. This is a small fragment, but it's a great, affordable way to own a piece of a historic T-Rex! Fossil comes in a unique T-Rex case and includes a laminated dinosaur information card. All fossils sold are authentic fossils, no replicas. Tyrannosaurus RexTyrannosaurus rex, or T. rex. The “king of the tyrant lizards,” as its Latin name is usually translated, walked on powerfully developed hind limbs. If the animal had stood upright, it would have been more than 21 feet tall, but the usual posture was horizontal, with the body carried parallel to the ground and the tail held off the ground as a counterbalance. In this position a large adult, weighing about 9,000 to 15,000 pounds, could about 46 feet long.Tyrannosaur teeth are distinctive. The front teeth are small and U-shaped. The side teeth are large, and in adults they become even larger, fewer in number, and D-shaped in cross section rather than daggerlike as in most theropods, or flesh-eating dinosaurs. In juveniles the teeth are laterally compressed and serrated front and back, like those of other theropods. In mature individuals, however, the teeth fall neatly into three general classes: upper front teeth, upper side teeth, and lower jaw teeth. Gut contents and coprolites (fossilized feces) of tyrannosaurs, as well as remains of other dinosaurs preserved with tyrannosaurid bite marks, show that tyrannosaurs were voracious predators that could easily bite through skulls, pelvises, and limbs of other dinosaurs. Bite marks found on the bones of other tyrannosaurs, especially T. rex, have been interpreted by some scientists as evidence of cannibalism. REX018
