The Baby Tyrannosaur

The Blackfeet Nation invites you to visit the Blackfeet Heritage Center
& Art Gallery to view Cameron, the
Baby Tyrannosaur



This skeleton represents the smallest, and most complete skeleton of a juvenile tyrannosaur found in North America.  The dinosaur was about three years of age when it died, and fell into an ancient river, 73 million years ago.  The cause of death is unknown.  The tyrannosaur was very closely related to Tyrannosaurus rex.  Its blade-shaped, serrated teeth indicate that it was a flesh-eater rather than a bone crusher like adult tyrannosaurs.

On the front-end of the skeleton, between the two shoulder blades is a boomerang-shaped bone called the furcula.  In birds the furcula is called the wish bone.  The presence of a wish bone in a tyrannosaur is one of many pieces of evidence indicating that birds are the descendents of dinosaurs.

The fossil was discovered on the Blackfeet Reservation by Dale and Patty Fenner and collected and prepared by The Museum of the Rockies, under the direction of Dr. Jack Horner.  Funding for preparation was made possible by the Discovery Channel
