The 66.5-million-year-old sequence consists of four connected footprints that provide the first direct locomotion data for a full-grown T. rex. The dinosaur maintained a 13-foot stride and traveled at a speed of 3.5 to 4.5 miles per hour, which researchers compare to a brisk human walking pace. This discovery shifts the understanding of the predator from a constant runner to an animal that frequently strolled.Why it mattersMost knowledge of T. rex anatomy and behavio https://www.live-feeds.com/feed/first-ever-adult-tyrannosaurus-rex-trackway-discovered-in-north-dakota-badlandshttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/first-ever-adult-tyrannosaurus-rex-trackway-discovered-in-north-dakota-badlands#u67645Mon, 14 Sep 2026 07:55:50 +0000Paleontologists have uncovered the first-ever adult Tyrannosaurus rex trackway in the North Dakota badlands near Marmarth. Discovered in 2025, the 66.5-million-year-old sequence features four giant three-toed prints. The fossilized trail records a 13-foot stride and shows the massive predator was strolling at a speed of 3.5 to 4.5 miles per hour rather than running. Researchers state that while bones provide extensive anatomical details, these footprints capture a distinct moment of behavior and offer new insight into the movement patterns of the iconic dinosaur.Why it mattersFor decades, scie
