London: Scientists have created a life-sized, anatomically complete version of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. They will dissect the 14-metre long dinosaur in a specially constructed lab in an attempt to fully understand it. A collaborating team of veterinary surgeons, biologists and palaeontologists hope to use the incredible replica to explore mysteries such as whether the dinosaur was a hunter or a scavenger, how it fed itself with its tiny arms, and whether it had feathers. The experts will be seen dissecting the predator in a two-hour National Geographic channel documentary, slated to be aired in the first week of June. The team would be seen sawing through the extinct animal's giant bones and wading through its innards.
