Tyrannosaurus

A tyrannosaurus rex was a carnivorous species of dinosaur.

Description
Tyrannosauruses were enormous predators, with large heads that measured long with teeth that were  in length. Despite their enormous size, they were known to be fast runners.

Behavior
Tyrannosaurs were not greatly intelligent and their savage nature could occasionally lead them to doing self-destructive acts, such as swallowing the horned head of a triceratops whole.

History
In the early-14 century DR, a tyrannosaur devoured the adventuring companions of Elijah Moonspeak.

During the Time of Troubles of 1358 DR, the deity Ubtao stalked the jungles of Chult in the form of a tyrannosaur and battled the snake god Sseth.

Reputation
Among those who knew of dinosaurs, tyrannosaurs were considered to be some of the most fearsome and dreadful of carnivorous dinosaurs.

Diet
Tyrannosaurs were a carnivorous species that hunted any creature they considered edible, and were terrors to all other creatures in their territory. If prey was scarce, a tyrannosaurus could survive on carrion and smaller creatures.

Beyond the Prime Material plane, some could be found in the Forbidden Plateau.

Usages
The fangs of these creatures were highly valued by collectors outside of Chult.
