There's something strange going on. A purported tyrannosaurus ancestor has been excavated in Poland. It was dated to 200 mya--which is the very late Triassic, along with a dicynodont. The t rex ancestor was about 5 m. long?! I thought tyrannosaurs evolved much later than that, and didn't reach that size till the Cretaceous.

in response to dinosaurs not being warm-blooded, just because they lack brown fat that doesn't mean they weren't warm-blooded. Keep in mind birds also lack brown fat but they are warm-blooded. Also there are many cold-blooded animals that hibernate, so being warm-blooded or having brown fat is rally a pre-request for that.
And who knows, maybe some dinosaurs were fat *shrugs*

If those are feathers, then my bathroom counter has lots of feather impressions  I don't see feathers. Those marks can be anything. |

LOL, I tried to look for feathers, and the areas I thought were feathers were not noted in the sketch as feathers Just goes to show people can see anything they want to. They haven't looked at enough rocks. |

Here more of the new Tyrannosaurid that has been discovered! www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0079420 It's 12 Million years older that T_Rex but this seems to have been the king of all Dino's of it's time, it grew to about 7 metres long and weighted 2.5 tons. T-Rex is very closely related to it, It's named Lythronax argestes aka Gore King  Here a nice video of it |

This fossil is their idea of evidence for feathers
