T. Rex Skull Replica, Hand Cast Plaster Dinosaur Sculpture 9.75L x 6W x 6.5H

Apex Predator or Scavenger? A Debate Written in the Skull

For decades, paleontologists argued over whether Tyrannosaurus rex hunted its food or scavenged it. The general view now is that it did both. This dinosaur skull replica is hand cast in plaster and stands 6.5 in tall. It is a scale replica of a T. rex skull, not a fossil.

About Tyrannosaurus Rex

Tyrannosaurus rex lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous. It went extinct 66 million years ago, in the Cretaceous-Paleocene extinction event.

Museums around the world display complete skeletons. The Field Museum in Chicago shows Sue, found in South Dakota in 1990. Sue's real skull is about 5 ft long and weighs roughly 600 lb. This T. rex skull replica brings that form down to 9.75 in.

Where It Sits Best

At 6 lb, this plaster T. rex skull sits securely on a shelf, desk, or bookcase. As dinosaur skull decor, it suits a study, a classroom, or a natural history display. Choose Studio White or Sepia finish. Each hand-cast dinosaur skull replica varies slightly in color and detail. For a larger version, see our T. rex cranial cast with display case.
