So much is still unknown about dinosaurs, but a fossilized Tyrannosaurus rex bone found in Montana could provide new insights.
In a recent study, researchers from North Carolina State University and North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences have confirmed the discovery of a medullary bone which is female-specific and formed around the time of reproduction.
This determination was made through a chemical analysis of the components.
Because the tissue only develops before or during the egg laying process, they have concluded that the T. Rex was lik
