Dinosaurs with weaponised skulls: New study uncovers how predator heads evolved into killing machines

A recent study reveals that theropod dinosaurs evolved specialized skulls for distinct attack styles. Tyrannosaurus rex possessed bone-crushing skulls, while spinosaurs developed narrow snouts for slicing flesh. These adaptations provided a competitive edge, allowing different theropods to coexist by targeting various prey. This weaponization of skulls highlights the diverse predatory strategies and evolutionary pressures shaping these prehistoric giants.
