Tarbosaurus bite marks have also been identified on hadrosaur and sauropod fossils, but theropod bite marks on bones of other theropods are very rare in the fossil record. [65] A 2020 study involving stable isotopes found that Tarbosaurus primarily hunted large dinosaurs in its environment, most notably titanosaurs and hadrosaurs. [66]
Estimated size compared to a human. Zhuchengtyrannus was a large carnivorous theropod, and the holotype has been estimated to have been "similar in size and gross morphology to Tarbosaurus", [1] which is about 10 metres (33 ft) in body length and 5 metric tons (5.5 short tons) in body mass.

An example of a readable book [b]. Each of the nine countries covered by the library, as well as Reporters without Borders, has an individual wing, containing a number of articles, [1] available in English and the original language the article was written in. [2] The texts within the library are contained in in-game book items, which can be opened and placed on stands to be read by multiple ...
Thomas Holtz found Appalachiosaurus to be an albertosaurine in 2004, [5] but his more recent unpublished work locates it just outside Tyrannosauridae, [18] in agreement with other authors. [19] The other major subfamily of tyrannosaurids is the Tyrannosauridae , including genera such as Daspletosaurus , Tarbosaurus , and Tyrannosaurus .
Fossils have been found in different formations in what is now east Asia and western North America. While the Asian alioramins are the basal most group of the tyrannosaurines, the geographic placement of albertosaurines and other eutyrannosaurian tyrannosauroids found in North America suggests greatly the tyrannosaurines are North American in ...
Furthermore, the size of the specimen, a 1.1 in (2.8 cm) dentary from the lower jaw found in the Two Medicine Formation of Montana in 1983 and a foot claw found in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation in 2018 and described in 2020, suggests that neonate tyrannosaurids were born with skulls the size of a mouse or similarly sized rodents and may have ...
Carr (2005) found Shanshanosaurus to be the sister taxon of a clade containing Tarbosaurus and Tyrannosaurus. Although this taxonomic placement is tentative at this time because most portions of Carr's (2005) dissertation have yet to be published, there is a possibility that Shanshanosaurus could be close to, if not conspecific with, Tarbosaurus.
