T. rex warm-blooded, body temp near human, tooth chemistry shows

Chemical analysis of T. rex teeth indicates warm-blooded metabolism with body temperature close to humans, challenging prior ectotherm theories. The study, published in Science Advances, suggests the dinosaur could inhabit icy regions. This is a fundamental paleontological finding, though its broader implications are limited to scientific understanding.
