The fiercest dinosaur of all!
The T-Rex is coming, and it's hungry! Other dinosaurs flee in terror from this lizard king. This T-Rex looks realistic and is easy to build. Plus, you can build an Ouranosaurus, Spinosaurus, and a Parasaurolophus using the same pieces!

Tyrannosaurus rex
"tyrant-lizard king"
tye-RAN-oh-SAWR-us REX
One of the largest and most powerful carnivores ever to walk the Earth, Tyrannosaurus rex was a 40-foot-long powerhouse of a dinosaur! Its massive, bone-crushing jaws and immense serrated shearing teeth more than made up for its surprisingly short two-clawed arms. Although some meat-eaters may have been longer, few rivaled the mighty T. rex for sheer bulk and physical strength.

Ouranosaurus
"brave (monitor) lizard"
oo-RAHN-oh-SAWR-us
This plant-eating dinosaur carried a high-spined sail on its back, and scientists aren't sure just what this unusual structure was used for. Related to both Iguanodon and Parasaurolophus, Ouranosaurus probably raked up plants and defended itself with the sharp spikes on its thumbs.

Parasaurolophus
"near Saurolophus"
PAR-ah-saw-ROL-ah-fuss (or PAR-ah-SAWR-oh-LOH-fuss)
This plant-eating "duck-billed" dinosaur had a long, hollow crest of bone that curved up from the back of its head. This may have helped it to make deep, foghorn-like calls to communicate over long distances with other members of its herd! Parasaurolophus usually walked on four legs, but could rear up on two.

Spinosaurus
"spine lizard"
SPINE-oh-SAWR-us
Although longer than Tyrannosaurus, Spinosaurus was a much more lightly-built meat-eater. Scientists aren't sure what the strange sail on its back was used for. It may have let the dinosaur shed excess heat from its body, or perhaps it helped to attract or frighten off other dinosaurs.
