Chapter 8 - The Early and Late Cretaceous

Here comes your favorite dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus Rex, also known as T-Rex and Tyrannosaurus.  Your friend Rexy here isn't quite the largest dinosaur, but definitely the fiercest with giant banana-sized teeth and her incredibly strong bite.  And another thing that Rexy here is known for is her "weak," tiny arms, but actually Rexy's arms were extremely strong and could probably help her get up if she fell down.

Also, some other of your favorite dinosaurs, Triceratops the Ceratopsian and your favorite Hadrosuar, Edmontosaurus, were discovered in fossilized dung of Rexy.

Actually, Triceratops probably isn't even a real dinosaur.  Well, we don't actually know, but some scientists think that Triceratops is a teenage version of the dinosaur Torosaurus, because Triceratops and Torosaurus evolved at the same time, went extinct at the same time, and lived in the same places.  Also, there have been no juvenile Torosaurus fossils found.  Even though all of the evidence adds up, not many scientists believe in this theory.

This giant alligator (yes, Dinosuchus is more closely related to Alligators than Crocodiles, even though its name means "Terrible Crocodile"), Dinosuchus was one of the largest predators of the late Cretaceous.  In fact, Dinosuchus could take on a fully grown Tyrannosaur, which makes Dinosuchus the real King of the "Terrible Lizards."
