The Tyrannosaurus was a large carnivorous dinosaur with very small forelimbs.
Creationist view
The Tyrannosaurus was originally thought to be a carnivore. However, this assertion directly contradicts the statements in the Bible that all animals were herbivorous before sin was introduced to the world.
Recent evidence has backed up the idea that many of the Dinosaurs like the T-Rex once thought to be meat eaters are actually vegetarians. New research suggests that the Tyranosaurus would not be able to move very quickly. [1] So most other dinosaurs, being fast moving creatures, could have easily gotten away from him.
Also, the teeth of the Tyranosaur are not well rooted in the Dinosaur's mouth, meaning it seems they could have snapped off easily in a battle.[2] Many have compared his teeth to those of the vegetarian spider monkey.
Also, Tyranosaur's front legs were insufficient for attacking any other Dinosaurs.
If some of the dinosaurs we find killed by the Flood did eat meat, they were probably scavengers (like vultures) that lived off the bodies of large dead animals. [3]
Bible-believing Christians can be sure of one thing. When dinosaurs were originally created, they were peaceful and harmless just like all the other animals.
Evolutionist View
When first discovered in 1892, Tyrannosaurus rex was the largest carnivorous dinosaur of all time. It lived during the Cretaceous period but became extinct with all the other dinosaurs 65 million years ago. It was originally thought to have stood upright and moved extremely slowly, but more recent analysis has disproven this hypothesis.
