Raptorex


A dinosaur 1 percent the size of T-Rex with most of the similar body characteristics was found to be living 60 million years before the T-Rex as around. The dinosaur is called a Raptorex. This is an important find because it ruins a lot of evolutionary theories about the T-Rex. The discovery ruins the theory that T-Rex’s small arms and large head were necessary evolutionary steps to develop into the large predator that was on top of the food chain in Asia and North America 65 million years ago. The dinosaur was thought to have no predators and probably hunted small plant eating dinosaurs, birds, or small carnivores.
