T Rex Hunter, Scavenger, and Territorial King!

Added: 2026-05-16

[00:00:00]And there's the question everyone asks, was it a hunter or a scavenger? The answer, both. It was an opportunist. A king doesn't turn down a free meal, but make no mistake, the T-Rex actively hunted. Evidence shows healed bite wounds on prey animals, which means the prey survived the attack long enough to heal, meaning the T-Rex was absolutely capable of taking down live, healthy animals. It stalked, it charged, it killed.

[00:00:30]Now, was the T-Rex territorial?

[00:00:32]Absolutely. Fossil evidence and population density studies suggest that T-Rex individuals required enormous territories to sustain themselves, potentially hundreds of square miles per animal. They were solitary creatures.

[00:00:47]They did not live in packs, they did not share. A single T-Rex would patrol its domain, and any competitor, whether prey or rival, was met with aggression.
