Of all the dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus Rex "King of the Tyrants" is perhaps the best known. Dinosaurs lived and flourished- ed during the Mesozoic era, which is divided into three periods; the Triassic period (230 million years ago); the Jurassic period (195 million years ago); and the Cretaceous period (136-65 million years ago), and the Tyrannosaurus lived dur- ing this last period. Its skeletons have been found in the Cretaceous sediments in Montana, USA, and Mongolia. He was the largest of the
meat-eating dinosaurs and grew to a length of 15 meters and had a height of 6 meters. With a weight of 7-8 tons, it spent three-quarters of each day hunting for food, and it has been suggested by paleontologists that the Tyrannosaurus most likely laid in wait for prey to come by, then pounce upon the helpless beast for another meal. Tyran- nosaurus rex was indeed the terror of its time, a tyrant in deed as well as in name. Its tremendous head with jaws of over 1 meter in length, and numerous sharp teeth six inches long, together with a jaw mechanism that allowed the
mouth to be opened extremely wide, this beast could tear off and devour enormous pieces of flesh. In contrast to his large head, the Tyrannosaurus had ridiculously small front limbs, which were almost useless. The hands had but two small-clawed fingers, that could, perhaps tear flesh, but could not reach to the mouth. The Tyrannosaurus was biped, meaning that it walked on its legs in an upright manner, and used its large heavy tail for balance and support. It ran with huge strides, lifting its feet well clear of the ground, and its tail swaying from side to side. It is now believed that the Tyrannosaurus could run as fast as 25-30 kilometers an hour even though it weighed as much as Seven tons.
<About the Picture>
Sauropods, like the Brontosaurus and Diplodocus, flourished during the late Jurassic period but had almost died out by the time of the Cretaceous period. The picture shows an Apatosaurus that survived in the Cretaceous period and was a good game for the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

A very interesting and realistic diorama can be made by using the Tyrannosaurus and the Triceratops, both of which lived during the Cretaceous period. The Triceratops is also available in Tamiya's Prehistoric Age series. The true coloration of dinosaurs is, of course, unknown, however, living
