Description
The Tyrannosaurus (tye-RAN-uh-SAWR-us ), or simply Rex, is one of the dinosaurs in ARK: Survival Evolved. The Tyrannosaurus is a huge, bulky predator that dominates virtually all of the island. It has considerably more health and stamina compared to Spinosaurus, but lacks the attack speed that Spinosaurus does have. They are also incredibly slow in water, making them vulnerable to attack from below, but they make up for these drawbacks with sheer size and strength.

Wild: Among the deadliest creatures on the island, Tyrannosaurus dominum is a killing machine. Active mostly when hunting for food or defending its nest, a reasonable plan is to avoid every Tyrannosaurus. I've seen no creature on the island that can contest Tyrannosaurus for sheer dominance. It is pure power - from its bite, to its stomp, to its tail, to its arms.

Domesticated: Taming a Tyrannosaurus is without a doubt a primary goal for any aspiring warlord or warring Tribes . There is a reason Tyrannosaurus is considered the king of the dinosaurs (or with this genus, the 'lord'). A Tribe that actually manages to tame one has almost nothing to fear to challenge their power.

Known Information: Despite being a different species of Tyrannosaurus, everyone I've met still refers to them as a "Rex" or a "T-Rex." I've long since stopped trying to convince anyone especially the few who I've seen wearing Tyrannosaurus teeth as necklaces.

Behavior
Highly aggressive, all Tyrannosaurus will attack anything within their sight, granted it's alive. However, unlike most other predators within the game, they seem to prefer other, larger prey to humans (players.) They are often seen ignoring smaller potential prey when larger ones are present. They're extremely bulky, having nearly double the health of Spinosaurus of the same level. They also possess surprisingly good stamina for their size, of which is also greater than that of any same-leveled Spinosaurus. What Tyrannosaurus' lack in attacking speed (when compared to a Spinosaurus) they make up for in sheer stamina and health. As stated in the dossier, it is considered the ultimate predator present on the island, those who tame them are feared like no other.
Appearance
T. dominum is an exceptionally large (and often colorful) theropod dinosaur found on the island. They are covered in small, circular scales that are often interrupted with large osteoderms. Their underbelly, however, is smooth and tan. Along their neck and back there is a large ridge of hard bony plates that may be used to protect their vertebrae from the jaws of other carnivores (including other T. dominum.) They have proportionately long legs that end in three thick, padded toes, each decorated with one large claw. T. dominum regularly exceed fifty feet in length, however, they possess disproportionately small arms. Strangely, these arms are heavily muscled and extremely thick. When tamed and ridden no carnivores except for other Rexes and Giganotosaurus will attack you if you don't attack them first which makes it easy to travel with the rex without being hunted by other dinosaurs.
Color Scheme and Regions
This section displays the Rex's natural colors and regions. For demonstration, the regions below are colored red over an albino Rex. The colored squares shown underneath each region's description are the colors that the Rex will randomly spawn with to provide an overall range of its natural color scheme. Hover your cursor over a color to display its name and ID.
