Features: In this volume, the Tyrannosaurus Rex makes its debut. Tyrannosaurus Rex is often perceived as a ruthless creature, but I will show you its gentle side, which is sure to surprise you. In 1990, in South Dakota, USA, a massive Tyrannosaurus Rex fossil was discovered. This fossil measured 13 meters in length and was, at the time, the world's most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton. However, what is truly astonishing is not just its size but the healed fracture marks on its leg bones. For a dinosaur like the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which supported its heavy body on two legs, a broken leg would mean immobility and likely death. But why did it survive until the fracture healed? Experts believe it may have been because other members of the Tyrannosaurus Rex family continuously provided food and care for the injured dinosaur until it recovered. In fact, even ruthless Tyrannosaurus Rexes understand the concept of "family bonds" akin to humans, and they are closely connected by this unbreakable familial love. On the other hand, the presence of Tyrannosaurus Rexes helped prevent the desertification of forests and grasslands caused by the overpopulation of herbivorous dinosaurs, further preserving the ecological balance.
