T.Rex Skull Fossil

Before you is the mighty skull of a Tyrannosaurus rex, the 'tyrant lizard king'! But don't worry, it's not as scary as it sounds—it's a replica, which means it's a very accurate copy made from a real T. rex fossil!

Take a close look at its enormous jaws and teeth. Each tooth is as big as a large banana—perfect for chomping! The T. rex used these sharp teeth to eat other dinosaurs and could open its jaws wide to take giant bites.

Notice how big the skull is? It’s about 5 feet long. That’s as tall as some of your parents! This enormous size helped the T. rex to have one of the strongest bites ever, strong enough to crush bone.

Fossil replicas help scientists and us to imagine what the T. rex looked like and how it lived millions of years ago during the late Cretaceous Period. Imagine this skull, full of life and on the hunt in the ancient forests
