The Scollard Formation is an Upper Cretaceous to lower Palaeocene stratigraphic unit of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in southwestern Alberta. [1] [3] Its deposition spanned the time interval from latest Cretaceous to early Paleocene, and it includes sediments that were deposited before, during, and after the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) extinction event.

In 1876 Cope created an Aublysodon lateralis, based on specimen AMNH 3956, [13] [14] a tooth of a juvenile tyrannosaur which has been synonymized with Deinodon horridus. [15] In 1892 Marsh named two more species: Aublysodon amplus and Aublysodon cristatus , respectively based on teeth YPM 296 and YPM 297; the latter has also been placed in the ...

The young Gorgosaurus knew what it liked for dinner. About 75 million years ago in what is now Canada's Alberta province, this fearsome T. rex cousin set about hunting turkey-sized yearlings of a ...
A new study suggests Tyrannosaurus rex had giant, full gums and lips that covered much of their teeth — far different from the gnashing jaws we saw in Jurassic Park.
A tooth from a Tyrannosaurus. Dinosaur teeth have been studied since 1822 when Mary Ann Mantell (1795-1869) and her husband Dr Gideon Algernon Mantell (1790-1852) discovered an Iguanodon tooth in Sussex in England.
T. rex was fully grown at around 18-21 years. Perhaps the largest-known Tyrannosaurus, a specimen named Sue at the Field Museum in Chicago, is 40-1/2 feet (12.3 meters) long.
