@HPP anky is not as large as you may think, or able to cause as much damage to tyrannosaurus as you might have thought...allow me to demonstrate;
The largest known skull measures 64.5 centimeters (25 in) long and 74.5 cm (29 in) wide. the estimates of 10 meters, 6 tons for Anky are too high. Ken carpenter recently re-described Anky at 6.25 meters long and 3-4 tons. The larger estimates came from some really old papers.
Here's a scale with the Tyrannosaurus based off of 1.5 meter skull.
Notice that the tail is disproportionaly short, too short to be overly dangerous for Tyrannosaurus. Don't forget that Ankylosaurus had short legs, wide body and armor, which made it very very very slow.
it's really weird. but beign that small it seems very unlikely for it to successfully defend itself. it would just need to be bigger, otherwise the blunt trauma it will cause cannot fatally harm something as big as rex.
@ Silver_Falcon That scale seems to be a bit off, a conservative Tarbo and a liberal maximum size therizino?
Tarbo vs Therizino is a predator/prey relationship. It most certainly would know how to deal with an animal like therizinosaurus. how exactly is it "Preposterous" for it to win?
Recently read the limbs of Therizinosaurs had a very limited range of motion, and although it had immense claws, they wouldn't be much use if there isn't a whole lot of follow through.
I do think this is not the mismatch others think, it would be rather close actually. Tarbo would probably come out on top 55% of the time.
I agree with all of yours hipho, except the victor of Tarbo vs. therizino. There is such a slim chance of tarbosaurus beating therizinosaurus, that to have tarbo win is preposterous.
Just going to let that sink in.
