Tyrannosaurus Rex: The Ultimate Predator

The video explores the sensory capabilities of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, highlighting its advanced sense of smell, vision, and hearing. T-Rex had large olfactory bulbs, suggesting a keen sense of smell, possibly comparable to a bloodhound. Its eyesight was enhanced by large eye sockets and stereoscopic vision, allowing it to detect prey through camouflage. Additionally, T-Rex's skull structure supported infrasonic hearing, enabling it to sense low-frequency sounds and vibrations, potentially aiding in echolocation. These attributes suggest T-Rex was a highly capable predator.
