The Only Dinosaur That T. Rex Was Scared Of

The Tyrannosaurus Rex is known as the king of the dinosaurs and ruler of Cretaceous North America. However, there was another king that lived along the Rex, and it was no carnivore, this was the Ankylosaurus

Predators like T. rex would have learned early in life to go after easier prey. After all, having just two legs, if it suffered a broken bone in one of it's lower legs from an Ankylosaurus club, that would be a death sentence. And as I think about it, populations of Ankylosaurus wouldn't need large numbers to survive as a genus (species?) due to a very low predation rate once achieving adulthood. A pretty ingenious animal.

[@thebitch9224]

Not really. They were unlikely to encounter most animals in their lifetime. Just like how we have a heightened ability to detect snakes biologically engraved in us, t-Rex’s would when also evolved such aversions towards certain type of animals. Basically ones that didn’t have this aversion would die… and those that did (to some extent) would survive. More accurately the injuries would hinder it and if they didn’t avoid certain creatures they were much more likely to suffer this injuries which would shorten their life on average.

[@josephcosta5382]

I can imagine they would investigate these animals but soon found out it just wasn't worth it. I wouldn't want Food that fights back either. I'd say "fk that" too if I was a T-Rex. 😆😆

Wonder if where they were so successful in repelling predators they might have (at least in adulthood) developed some Aposematic coloration to ward off predators even further

Only five incomplete Ankylosaurus specimens have ever been found. Contrast that to the literal tens of hundreds of Edmontosaurus and Triceratops specimens that have been discovered, and it’s no surprise that we haven’t any Ankylosaurus specimens with T. rex bite marks on them. It’s not because T. rex never fed on them. It’s because the available sample size for Ankylosaurus specimens is so insanely tiny that the likelihood of finding any evidence of feeding on them would be a statistical wonder.

@bobmuller8806 it's a measure of force accumulated over a time as opposed to a rate of force per time. so like your electric bill is measured in kW*h (kilowatt-hours) because what's important is the power (kW) in total that you use over a time (hour). it wouldn't make sense to have an electric bill that is kW/h (kilowatt per hour) cause that just tells you the rate when in this context the accumulation is what matters. so in this video what matters in that measurement is the total force across that time that the tail applies. in other contexts the rate of force may be important. I don't know what the rest of what you said even means. but good luck ig

@lickdickrick to be able to do that the Trex would need to be able to get its head on the side And push it over in one swoop (cause if you start pushing it it will just move and the trex would just tip over from the sheer force it had to put into it) We are talking bout an animal that weight around 5 tons and low point of gravity Altough I understand where you comminh from, I just dont see it happen with an animal that is defending itself

[@catpoke9557]

I think it's less so that it was the only one it was afraid of, as it was the one it was the MOST afraid of. A T. rex that doesn't have a healthy level of fear of its prey would die. It has to fear its prey to some extent so it will be perfectly on edge the whole time while hunting. A fearless rex is a careless rex. Not that it's healthy to be too afraid either, because then it'd panic. It would need to just be on edge, to ensure it never gets cocky.

The evolution of these animals actually makes quite a lot of sense, they fought each other with their clubs, to compete for things like mates, while also needing to be HIT by said clubs. Perhaps leading to clubs getting bigger and armor becoming stronger. Kind of like how deer rut for mates, and in animals who do rut, the things they use to fight often get bigger and bigger, leading to a more specialized version of whatever body part they use. It's amazing how nature has these systems for weeding out certain genes and keeping evolution going. Of course no concrete evidence for anything here we're all just looking at old bones.
