## Tyrannosaurus in Real Life

Further information: WP:Tyrannosaurus

Tyrannosaurus was a Tyrannosauroid dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period in Earth's history, from 68 to 66 million years ago in what is now North America. This makes Tyrannosaurus among some of the very last non-avian dinosaurs to live before the K-Pg mass extinction event which wiped out nearly all the dinosaurs save for the birds. It was the largest predator of its environment and is estimated at12.4 m (41 ft) in length, 4 m (13 ft) in height, and 10 tons in weight. It was known to live in several different ecosystems in its range, from subtropical coasts to semi-arid plains and lived along many other well known dinosaurs, including but not limited to Triceratops.

Tyrannosaurus means "Tyrant Lizard", derived from Greek.
