Tyrannosaurus rex "Maximus" [1:1]
Featured in the ORIGIN OF GIANTS Exhibit
Late Cretaceous Period, approx. 68-66 million years ago
1:1 Scale Skull Replica
SPECIMEN PROFILE
Tyrannosaurus rex possessed one of the most powerful skulls in the history of terrestrial life. Its massive, deep-set cranium housed powerful jaw muscles capable of delivering an extraordinary bite, while thick, robust bones helped withstand the stresses of crushing and tearing through prey. Large, thick, conical teeth with serrated edges were adapted to pierce flesh, grip struggling animals, and fracture bone.
This life-size skull is modeled after "Maximus," a remarkable adult T. rex specimen discovered in South Dakota's Hell Creek Formation. Measuring approximately 53.5 inches in length, the original skull is notable for its exceptional size and preservation, offering a striking example of the immense cranial proportions reached by this iconic predator near the end of the Cretaceous.
COLLECTOR & CURATOR NOTE

At nearly five feet in length, this 1:1 Tyrannosaurus rex skull brings the scale and presence of one of prehistory’s most iconic predators into the modern display space.
