Expert paleontologists validate findings as convergent scientific evidence

Scott Persons at South Carolina State Museum and Thomas Carr at Carthage College endorse the study, noting it aligns with extensive prior evidence including bone growth rates, predator-prey ratios, and anatomical traits consistent with athleticism. Persons notes the finding contradicts the premise of Jurassic World films, which suggested dinosaurs could not survive outside equatorial climates.
“The opening to the last Jurassic World flick was one big pile of Hollywood bunk. That film premised that dinosaurs could not survive in the modern world, except near the equator. Not so.”

More evidence that T. rex was warm-blooded. New analysis of carbonates, with C and O isotopes in teeth enamel, indicates a body temperature of 36.3 ± 2.5°C. Modern elephants have body temps of 36.0° - 36.2°C, humans 37.0°. The mean temp. in Hell Creek, the location of the fossils, was estimated at 21°C, implying that T. rex was consistently warmer…

T. rex was hot. Its body temperature, that is. Which was pretty close to our body temperature, as shown by an innovative new chemical study of its fossil teeth. Maybe so hot it was properly warm blooded like us. Maybe… My take for @nytimes.com

> Up until the early 2000s, dinosaurs were thought to be rather reptilian and therefore probably coldblooded, Dr. Wiemann said. That began to change as multiple lines of evidence from geochemistry studies and CT scans of fossils showed they were warm-blooded. Dr. Wiemann had previously found that T. rex had a fast metabolism, but she said the new…

Isotope analysis of fossil tooth enamel suggests T. rex was a warm-blooded endotherm. The body temperature of the Tyrannosaurus rex, which lived on Earth about 66 million years ago was around 36 °C, similar to that of humans. www.dongascience.com/en/news/79956 #globalmuseum #dinosaurs #UCLA #fossils

Isotope analysis of fossil tooth enamel suggests T. rex was a warm-blooded endotherm. An analysis has suggested that the body temperature of the carnivorous dinosaur Tyrannosaurus rex (Tyrannosaurus), which lived on Earth about 66 million years ago, was around 36 °C, similar to that of humans. https://www. dongascience.com/en/news/79956 #…

T. rex teeth indicate it may have been warm blooded A team of researchers at the University of California has measured the T. rex body temp by analyzing its teeth. Analysis indicates a temp of about 36° Celsius—roughly the body temperature of a modern elephant.

It intuitively makes sense. A cold-blooded creature of that mass would take a long time to properly warm up or cool down. Most modern cold-blooded animals are small, e.g. frogs, snakes, lizards. They can move into the sunlight or shade as needed and pretty quickly change temperature.

the best part of this kind of science is that there’s no way to reproduce it or prove if it’s actually true, but it makes a great pop science article

'Hotter than a crocodile, cooler than a chickennnnn....'is the opening line to a great song i'll never get to hear.

This is really interesting, worth a read. Wouldn’t be surprised if the even larger dinosaurs had even higher body temps!

How do we know its body temperature was 97 degrees, and simply not the environment was 97 degrees?
