Did the T. Rex Have Feathers?
💡 The Answer
- The Tyrannosaurus rex likely had feathers based on fossil evidence.
- Scientists in China discovered Early Cretaceous period tyrannosaur skeletons covered in feathers.
- These finds suggest that the ancestors of T. rex possessed this feature.
- It is therefore probable that T. rex also had feathers, not scales as often depicted.
