New Dinosaur That Predates Tyrannosaurus rex Found In Utah

Last Wednesday, paleontologists unveiled a new dinosaur discovered four years ago in southern Utah, USA, that proves giant tyrant dinosaurs like the Tyrannosaurus rex were around 10 million years earlier than previously believed.

A full skeletal replica of the carnivore - the equivalent of the great uncle of the T. rex - was on display at the Natural History Museum of Utah alongside a 3-D model of the head and a large painted mural of the dinosaur roaming a shoreline.
