''Tyrannosaurus'' was a large [[theropod]], with recovered specimens averaging between 36-40 feet in length and standing about 12 feet at the hips <ref>Brochu, C.R. 2003. Osteology of Tyrannosaurus rex: insights from a nearly complete skeleton and high-resolution computed tomographic analysis of the skull. Memoirs of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology. 7: 1-138.</ref>. The weight of an adult has been estimated to be between 5-7 tons, roughly comparable to a living African [[elephant]].
