The video explores the dynamics between Tyrannosaurus rex, a dominant predator in North America, and its competition for food. T. rex, with its formidable teeth, can easily tear through tough skin but faces challenges from other creatures like the giant pterosaur, Quetzalcoatlus. Despite the threat of losing an eye from its six-foot-long beak, T. rex initially stands its ground.
