Research implies Tyrannosaurs lived in social groups

The Tyrannosaurus-Rex is probably the most well-known of all dinosaurs. Almost every child remembers the twisted mix of emotions the first time they saw one on screen. The combination of fear and fascination that the T-Rex invoked, as they mindlessly rampaged and ate any creature they came across, seared this particular "terrible lizard" into our memories, and often, nightmares. However, a new study on a recent fossil discovery suggests this lonesome apex hunter of the cretaceous period was not the solitary predator we believed.
