As the largest carnivorous dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus Rex is also one of the most terrifying dinosaur species that we know. They appeared between 65 million and 68.5 million years ago, according to fossil studies, they mainly lived in North America. In 65 million years ago, the Earth experienced the fifth mass extinction. Tyrannosaurus Rex was also one of the last dinosaurs to go extinct.

Similarly, in the early Cretaceous period, there is also a powerful species on the earth in addition to Tyrannosaurus Rex. Its name is called Spinosaurus, from the literal meaning we can see that Spinosaurus refers to the large lizard with spines on the back, they are also the one of the largest known meat-eating dinosaurs. About 11,400 years ago, Spinosaurus has been born. According to fossil analysis, they mainly lived in present-day Niger, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and other African places, because the fossils are rare, so scientists’ research data on Spinosaurus is extremely precious.

Here we compare large carnivorous dinosaurs from two different regions and eras. Compare the data of the two in terms of size, strength, bite force, speed, etc., to determine who is stronger. And open the reader’s mind. Finally, tell why are we able to restore the scene – T-Rex VS Spinosaurus?

Here are some comparisons of adult dinosaurs

Tyrannosaurus Rex

Size – It is 11.5 to 14.7 meters long. The average hip height is about 4 meters. The highest hip can reach about 5.2 meters, and the highest head is nearly 6 meters.

Weight – The average weight is about 9 tons (ecological average is about 7.6 tons), the heaviest is 14.85 tons, and the maximum head length is about 1.55 meter.

Bite Force – The maximum bite force is 6-8 tons.

Speed – 20KM/H

Teeth – Serrated, railroad spike shaped teeth, continually replaced, largest teeth 12 inches (30cm) and made to crush bone.

Arms – 2 small arms / claws, couldn’t reach its mouth, two-fingered “hands” very muscular for their size, about 2.5 feet / 0.7m.

Tail – Long, stiff tail perpendicular to the ground for balance. The T-Rex’s tail was powerful and pointed.

Spinosaurus

Size – It is 11 to 15 meters long. The average hip height is about 4.5 meters. The highest hip can reach about 5.7 meters, and the highest head is nearly 6.5 meters.

Weight – The average weight is about 10 tons, and the heaviest is 16 tons.

Bite Force – The maximum bite force is 4 tons, and the palm strike force can reach 8 tons.

Speed – 15KM/H

Teeth – Cone-like teeth possibly visible from outside. The length of the teeth is more than 10cm, and the largest can reach 22cm.

Arms – 2 large arms, both weaponized with viciously hooked claws. The forelimbs are more than 2 meters long, and the length of the first paw on the hand is more than 40cm.

Tail – Tail held above the ground most of the time. Long and paddle-like, possibly indicating an aquatic lifestyle.

Battle Scene

Statistically speaking, Spinosaurus’s size and claws seem to have been advantageous in battle. But nothing is determined by a single statistic.

In the movie Jurassic Park 3, the Spinosaurus killed the Tyrannosaurus Rex in one critical strike, which made many viewers marvel that a dinosaur could finally defeat Tyrannosaurus Rex.

But this is just a fictional plot of the movie, really let Spinosaurus and T-Rex fight, in different scenes, the ending may not be necessarily.

According to research, Tyrannosaurus Rex mainly lives in the plains with abundant materials and tropical rainforests with lush vegetation, where there are a lot of herbivorous dinosaurs, which is also a food source for Tyrannosaurus Rex to survive.

Therefore, Tyrannosaurus Rex is more capable of hunting skills and combat effectiveness in plains and forest areas. If a battle were to take place in a plain or forest, Tyrannosaurus Rex would be able to defeat Spinosaurus with superior agility.

Spinosaurus grew in prehistoric Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Tunisia, and possibly Western Sahara, Niger, and Kenya. There were swamps and rivers, and large fishes and small aquatic dinosaurs were prey to Spinosaurus. Paleontologists confirmed that Spinosaurus was an excellent swimmer.

If the battle took place in the water or near the shore, Spinosaurus would have been more fighting effective to defeat T-Rex.

Conclusion

In fact, the battle between two, win or lose is 50%. If either Tyrannosaurus Rex or Spinosaurus can seize a moment of victory, they can defeat each other.

In addition, if you travel back in time to the Cretaceous period, you will not see their battles. Because they lived in different times and places, it’s impossible to see creatures from two different continents fighting.

Can you reconstruct images of T-Rex and Spinosaurus?

Answer: In fact, we are animatronic dinosaur maker, and fabricate life size dinosaur model with motion system. Over 100 styles T-Rex and spinosaurus models were made by our handworks.
