Tyrannosaurus rex was one of Earth’s most massive predators, and its name — tyrant lizard king — evokes destiny. But was the ascent of tyrannosaurs to the top of the food chain inevitable? Join paleontologist Dr. Lindsay Zanno as she reveals what new dinosaur discoveries from the dawn of the Cretaceous are teaching us about the fame and fortune of T. rex and its favorite meal… Triceratops.
