During the Late Cretaceous, a giant Tyrannosaur lumbers about looking for its next victim. It has one of the most powerful bites ever seen and outsizes nearly every predator be it on land or in the water, sounds a lot like the T. rex right? Wrong! This is Tarbosaurus!

Tyrannosaurus having a much broader skull than Tarbosaurus is actually a myth (probably based on subadult or poorly preserved Tarbosaurus specimens). In reality, Tarbosaurus had a snout about as broad as Tyrannosaurus relatively speaking but a narrower back of the skull.

[@Boxsulint]

I haven’t even seen the video, but I clicked on it because the title the T-Rex’s older Asian brother is probably the best title on any KZbin video ever

[@mitsubishigenetech]

I remember seeing the Tarbosaurus in Zdenek Burian's book "Life before man". It looked monumental. I later realised that the artist managed to make it look so huge by simply putting the horizon very low, but it's still epic, especially with that pose. Poor T-rex got the opposite treatment. He put the horizon line behind it's shoulders, so it appeared as it's not much taller than 2-2,5 meters (in that classic kangaroo pose). Perspectice is such an interesting artistic tool.

[@jackstraw4222]

tarbosaurus isnt as small as many publications make it out to be,sure its average size is 8-10m...but the largest specimens could reach 40ft..or close to that...

Absolutely loved this in-depth look at Tarbosaurus! It's a theropod that I've increasingly grown more fond of after the release of Prehistoric Planet, and this video definitely helped increase that love with some very interesting facts! If I could recommend some other species for you to do videos about, my biggest recommendations would be the Carnotaurus, Nanuqsaurus or Steguoros!

Unpopular opinion the Tarbosaurus design is even better than the Tyrannosaurus design in Prehistoric Planet. I love the dusty red coloration and the orange spots, it looks realistic resembling a leopard or a Gila monster, but is still colorful compared to the brown and tans of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

[@rylandfrederick431]

One thing that may explain the eyesight between Asian and American tyrannosaurs is that places like Mongolia where more arid so seeing prey in dense vegetation wouldnt be a sought after trait since more prey wouldn't be there anyways, but in the North American floodplains it would be beneficial to have great eyesight to see in the dark and forested swamps. (Along side rex having to face ceratopsians and even bigger Hadrosaurus so eyesight woulda helped avoid horns and hooves)

Mcraeensies is way bigger at 12 meters or 40 feet long & weights humongous 8.8 tonnes & Tyrannosaurus rex is 12.8-13.1 meters or 42-43 feet long & weights 11.7-12.5 tonnes.
