The most famous and iconic of all dinosaur species, the T. rex was first described by Henry Fairfield Osborn in 1905 from a skeleton found in 1902 in the Hell Creek Formation in Montana. Standing over 13ft tall and 40ft long, the T. rex was the top predator of the late Cretaceous, amongst the last dinosaurs to walk the earth before their mass extinction.
The T. rex tooth offers incredible insight into how these ferocious creatures lived. The tooth, characterized by its unique curved and serrated shape, was specifically adapted to help the dinosaur tear through the hides and flesh, with the curvature allowing the T-rex to apply maximum force as it tore into its prey. Indeed, the present Lot is a remarkably preserved and visceral fossil that offers us an insight into the largest predator to ever walk the Earth.
