Fifty Shades of Rex: Reconstructing Colour in Tyrannosaurus
CWSF · 2026 Curiosity & Ingenuity
Overview
My goal for this study was to find the colour of T. rex when alive. We know a lot about dinosaur’s bones but their skin is still a mystery. With this project I hope to create a better understanding of not just T. rex, but dinosaur soft tissue in general.
