Name means: Terror lizard
Weight: 4-5 tons
Length: 32.5 ft ( about 10 m)
Diet: carnivore ( yes, people it eats meat)
When: 65-75 million years ago
Where: Mongolia & china
Prey: Saurolophus
Basic info: Say hello to the Mongolian T-Rex. When this dinosaur was found it was actually thought to be a juvenile Tyrannosaurus. Until an actual juvenile T-Rex was found then they knew it was a totally different animal. Tarbosaurus is a smaller than T-Rex, but shared many features with T-Rex, like short arms, and powerful jaws. A large head, 2 powerful legs, and teeth up to 7 in long make this large predator a force to be reckoned with.

Have you been to the Field Museum in Chicago? My daughter went up there with her Girl Scout Troop several years ago to see Sue, then we took a family vacation to Chicago, so all of us got to see the T-rex. It's huge! The Tarbosaurus is smaller, but I'll bet it could really do some damage!
no, I haven't but it sounds cool. I hope I can go there sometime. I've read so much about sue and would really love to see it!
