While #tyrannosaurs have names that evoke fear and terror, there are some that do the opposite such as the long-snouted tyrannosaur, #Qianzhousaurus or “Pinocchio Rex” and a rather important tyrannosaur for #25DaysOfTyrannosaurs. Artwork by FunkMonk
19. For #25DaysOfTyrannosaurs, #Eotyrannus is one of the earliest known #tyrannosaurs from Western Europe, specifically England. Art by @SerpenIllus and skeletal drawing by @skeletaldrawing
15. For #25DaysOfTyrannosaurs, let’s introduce #Dilong, the emperor dragon. Discovered in China, Dilong was a small #tyrannosaur that lived during the early Cretaceous, and shook the foundations of theropod and tyrannosaur study with its preserved feathers. Art by Alex Lovegrove
9. I will be discussing a #tyrannosaur from the Eastern US for #25DaysOfTyrannosaurs, #Appalachiosaurus, a representative of Eastern Cretaceous North America. When I first hearad of Appalachiosaurus, I surprised at the idea of dinosaurs discovered both east & west of the US.
2. The next #tyrannosaur for #25DaysOfTyrannosaurs will be #Guanlong, a proceratosaurid with a rather remarkable name “Crown Dragon”. Proceratosaurids are known for their small size (with some exceptions), long arms with three fingers, and elaborate crests.
