Raptorex Raptorex Raptorex is a dubious genus of tyrannosaurid dinosaur. Its fossil remains consist of a single juvenile specimen probably uncovered in Mongolia, or possibly northeastern China. The type species is "R. kriegsteini", described in 2009 by Sereno and colleagues. The genus name is derived from Latin ', "robber", and ', "king". The specific name honours Roman Kriegstein, a survivor of the Holocaust, whose son Henry Kriegstein donated the specimen to the University of Chicago for scientific study. While initially considered to have come from the Yixian Formation of China, dated to approximately 125 million years ago during the early Cretaceous
Specimens of Tyrannosaurus conclusion that "Tyrannosaurus" would have had a bite force of about 6.8 tonnes, or 60,000 Newtons. Stan has also been used for studies involving restoration of dinosaurs body mass and study on how they could have moved. Like many other fossils of "Tyrannosaurus rex", the skeleton of Stan shows many broken and healed bones. These include broken ribs and damages in the skull. One of the most prominent injuries are in the neck and the skull. A piece of bone is missing at the rear, and the skull also bears a hole 1 inch wide, probably made by another "Tyrannosaurus".
