Tiny T-Rex Discovered in China

About 150 million years ago, a creature unknown to human kind until this moment in time walked prehistoric China. It was a little T-Rex, called the Raptorex, although it is thought to have existed 60 million years before the Tyrant Lizard King. An adult Raptorex was about 9 feet tall and weighed about 150 pounds. The Raptorex weighed about almost 100 times less then a T-rex, is about 1/100th of a size. The discovery of this new dinosaur was completely unexpected, and scientists are still in shock at the Raptorex. I feel that this is in amazing discovery, and I hope that we can find more discoveries like it soon
