12 Meters? T-Rex is 13 meters. Damn! it's nearly as big as a T-Rex!!! O.O

t.rex is closer to being 12 meters actually

i think its tyrannosaurus bataar

There's enough morphological differences in the skull to determine it it's own genus.

It's debatable, Tarbosaurus has a more narrow skull and more teeth.

Looks good

, but don't you think (after the discovery of Yutyrannus) it would have had more feathers

Teratophoneus Featured By Owner Jul 22, 2012

nope,actually we have skin impressions from albertosaurus that show that the big tyrannosaurids were scaled. This doesnt mean that they had no feathers but that they were scaled mostly. Yutyrannus is a basal trannosauroid , it is closely related to the earlier coelurids, whichare tyrannosauroids too . These jurassic small carnivores had probably feathers and during the evolution of tyrannosaurids,the feathers probably got lost in the big tyrannosaurids.

Well, since albertosaurus lived in canada some of them may have had feathers,as for tarbosaurus it may have had display feathers,or since the desert is quite cold at night some feathers for insulation.

daisaspy Featured By Owner Nov 30, 2013

There's enough evidence to suggest these scales are in fact modified feathers.

Teratophoneus Featured By Owner Dec 2, 2013

as long as they look like scales i´m fine with that

WDGHK Featured By Owner Edited Nov 14, 2015 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Well most paleontologists now believe that even the biggest tyrannosaurs retained a certain amount of feathers into adulthood, so too bad for biased nostalgiatards like you.

lol, did you read when that cooment was posted, that was 2 years ago, my opinion has obviously changed but you would know that if you would have taken a look at my more recent tyrannosaurs instead of posting senseless comments below this clearly outdated picture .....

Du meinst wohl Tyrannosaurus bataar. Der wurde vor kurzem umbenannt.

Teratophoneus Featured By Owner Jul 21, 2012

ich persöhnlich bin da eher skeptisch, meiner meinung nach sind die beiden verschieden genug um jeweils eine eigene gattung zu bilden, außerdem ist tarbosaurus etwas älter als t rex.
