They say someday that they might be able to do it. Jurassic Park style. With a lot more science.

In this case, we have an eyewitness account. Steven Speilburg observed this very behavior when he was on his recent Triceratops hunting expedition. Just ask him, or check it out on facebook.

A gang attacked King Kong and he wrapped three of ‘em up in cellophane.

Predators, but current predators also resort to scavenging when they’re hungry. :’)

true
but I was thinking that any threat to the boss are killed or expelled from the pack, like with lions, where they become loners.

Hopefully there will be a cutesy name for a group of Tyrannosaurus. Like a clowder of cats, a congregation of alligators, a murder of crows, and a horde of hamsters.
A “ballet” of Tyrannosauruses?
A “dainty” of Tyrannosauruses?
A “sweetness” of Tyrannosauruses?

I just last week I saw the preserved T Rex footprint outside Tuba City, Arizona. There was only one that I saw, and there was no evidence of a pack, but there were hundreds of smaller herbivore prints all over the area. The three-toed T Rex print was huge, easily three foot from the heel spur to the middle toe which was about ten inches wide at its root.

" Personally, I like to think that they subsisted on chocolate and peanut butter, but I have no evidence - except for those Reeses wrappers that were carbon dated to the Jurassic period. " Impossible! Tyrannosaurs were from the Cretaceous. Allosaurs, however, could have been chocovorous. Try to come up with some tie-in to global warming and apply for a multimillion dollar federal research grant.

The article uses the term a terror of T-rex. Kind of a nice ring to it.

A nexus of Rex's?

Theories are based on evidence, and more evidence is found all the time. Its not handed down in stone. Uhhhhh, yes it is. That's why they call it the fossil record... ;)

But I thought the theories, like the fossils, were embedded in stone, same as the heads of my instructors that handed them down from upon high on the lectern.
