Here’s a more derived tyrannosaur for #Theropodacember, #Dilong (“Emperor Dragon”). A small, feathered tyrannosaur with cranial elements that will be present in later tyrannosaurs (fused nasals). From Dilong to T. rex, big things have small beginnings. Art by Alex Lovegrove.
Since I’ve already talked about Gorgosaurus, here’s another Canadian tyrannosaurid for #Theropodacember, #Daspletosaurus (“frightful lizard”). Art by @SerpenIllus.
