Over the years, researchers have found ample evidence proving that the horned Triceratops and the Tyrannosaurus Rex (T. rex), which roamed western North America in the late Cretaceous period — some 69 million years ago — were mortal enemies. However, finding perfectly-preserved fossils of the prey and predator locked in combat was something they only dreamed of until the 2006 discovery of the "Dueling Dinosaurs" at a private Montana farm by commercial fossil hunters Clayton Phipps and his team.

                  It's actually a raptor... not a T rex

                    Even though it looks like a raptor, it's a juvenile tyrannosaur.

                      Well, it's not a raptor. These are professional paleontologists. Raptors did not look how they do in Jurassic Park. That's a tyrannosaurus. Not a raptor.

                      A 6-foot asteroid hit the earth and kill 70% of the earth and that is what caused the dinosaurs to go extinct.
