I recently tried revising my silly little T. rex vs. jaguar skull at total body mass parity comparison to fit the data in Sakamoto et al. (2019)'s supplementary material. According to their data, Stan has a skull 142.6 cm long, while a 97 kg jaguar has a skull ~22.7 cm (rounding) in length. I tried to upsize the jaguar's skull as if the whole animal weighed 7,722 kg (this is Franoys' estimate for Stan, which is probably the most liberal estimate I don't consider to be pushing it), giving us a skull of ~97.65 cm long.

It definitely can't be perfect, so I'd appreciate if someone can check my comparison, maybe do a better job than I can. The T. rex skull is by Greg Paul->, while the jaguar skull is Figure 1 of Naish et al. (2014)->; the skull is labeled "Peruvian tiger" but it was resolved as part of P. onca.

theropod: Yes. Shit. I don’t think the free world had any real plan B or contingency for the worst case scenario that has apparently ended up happening. Things were bad enough as it is, and nobody really has any capacity left to deal with it getting even shittier. Nov 6, 2024 19:38:01 GMT 5

Infinity Blade: I imagine tyrannosaurs having finesse through their premaxillary teeth. We know they could delicately scrape meat off of bones with those if they wanted to. Aug 28, 2024 1:29:55 GMT 5

Supercommunist: Anyone find it kind of weird how some people portay gigantosaurus as a finese predator compared to a tyrannosaurus? Given that tyrannosaurus had the smaller gape and the duller teeth, wouldn't it require more precision? Aug 27, 2024 23:49:00 GMT 5
