T. rex’s Bite Marks Reveal Hunting & Scavenging | Science News
from Science News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Scientists in Wyoming uncovered over 3,000 ancient bones dating back 72 to 66 million years, with just 12 showing clear bite marks—four matching T. rex teeth perfectly. Most marked bones showed no healing, suggesting T. rex was both a hunter and scavenger. Researchers developed a new method to distinguish real bite damage from fossil wear, revealing a brutal prehistoric food chain centered around Edmontosaurus. These fossils offer fresh insight into how the mighty T. rex lived—and ate. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
