Overview

• Computer models indicate T. Rex might have been 70% heavier and 25% longer than known specimens.
• The largest T. Rex fossils likely represent only the top 1% of the species' body size.
• Finding the absolute largest individuals would require another 1,000 years of fossil excavation.
• Study highlights the limitations of fossil records in estimating maximum dinosaur sizes.
• Research uses living alligators to model size variance in adult T. Rex.
