First Tiny Elvis, then Tiny T-Rex
>
Just like Elvis once had a tiny understudy, so does T-Rex.
U.S. Palaeontologists with access to a fossil from China have identified a new species of dinosaur, called Raptorex - that was a miniature version of the famed Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The fossil that led to the discovery has a colorful background.
150-lb. Raptorex may have had a distinctive plume
