scholars have uncovered soft bone structure of a tyrannosaurus rex classified as mor 1125 , contained in a sandstone foundation in wyoming . mor 1125 was 18 years alive when it died , 65 million years ago . similar tissue of a skeleton has certainly been found before , as all those found until now were fosilized . the tissue still preserves microscopic objects with bloodvessels and cells . the relationship between the specimen contained in the t - rex and a modern day ostrich show a remarkable similarity . the results have been reproduced with an 80 - million - year - old hadrosaur and the other tyrannosaurs . the discovery was reports in today ' s issue of science . findings identical to the popular film " jurassic jungle " are unlikely , as the salvage of bacteria from the tissue is improbable . the results continue astounding , however , and tests with enzymes that react to collagen shows the tissue may still lack proteins . " as if we can uncover chemical composition , we would have insights into all kinds of things : foods , sexual maturity , whether the specimen is the man or female .
