When most people think of prehistoric life, their minds go straight to T. rex or a Brachiosaurus stretching its neck above the treetops. Understandable, honestly.

You probably think you already know the T. rex story. Giant lizard, tiny arms, thunderous roar – the stuff of Hollywood blockbusters and childhood nightmares.
