Dinosaur figurine: Red Tyrannosaurus Rex - Schleich

Red Tyrannosaurus Rex figurine from the Dinosaurs collection, from the Schleich brand.

The tyrannosaurus rex measured thirteen meters in length. This bipedal predator impressed with its massive skull and teeth measuring almost 20 centimeters.

Despite its menacing appearance, the Tyrannosaurus rex could barely use its two small front legs, which had only two claws, since it could not even extend them as far as it would go. to his mouth. With a size of almost seven meters and a length of almost thirteen meters, it is likely that the tyrannosaurus rex was not a very good hunter but rather a scavenger who fed on what other animals left behind. It had more than fifty teeth whose length is estimated at more than 15 centimeters, but which were only used to tear and not to chew its food, which it swallowed in large pieces. The tyrannosaurus rex's eye sockets are oriented forward, improving its depth perception while searching for food, and allowing the field of vision of each eye to be intersected.

Dimensions: 28 x 9.5 x 14 cm.

Suitable for children aged 4 and over.
