The wolves could cover up the dinosaur and claw open its eyes and stuff

It would take a lot. I think it would mainly be the trex sweeping its tail and the wolves circling until the trex tired itself out

ROFL tell me you are joking...cuz if you are serious about that, you are beyond uneducated.

The T-rex could take down other large dinosaurs, and could handle ones like the raptor, but you assume that 3 little wolves would be capable of taking it down? It's 20ft tall, the only thing they are going to be biting at are his feet. How do you even know if their bite is capable of breaking through his skin, especially his leg / feet skin which would be even tougher than his softer areas due to calluses(his feet crush small trees as he walks).

The strength of his tail alone would probably kill every wolf standing in it's path. The dinosaur was 7tons, I think throwing that weight around would surely kill however many wolves were gathered. I don't think he would try and use his jaws on them, due to his small arms and clunky size, but all the thing would have to do is step on them, and they would smoosh like goo.

Best post of the year.


If I remember, that particular T-Rex is constantly foiled and subjugated by a stuffed tiger, girl from down the street, and two middle-aged, slightly bored adult humans.

Wolves have a fighting chance.

dood.

he may be 40ft tall, but he has a brain a size of a shrunken testicle. wolfs are smart as dogs. and did you see the size of t-rex hands, he can't even masterbate?

6-7 wolfes would destroy them in 20 seconds.

compare that to archon vs 7 zerglings with proper micro.

That except modern researchers suggest that the T-rex was a scavenger, and not fit to fight.

And, wolves have been shown to have a great learning reflex. Therefore as soon as they saw a couple of fellow wolves swept off by the tail, they'd know to avoid it.

Wolf enamel is strong enough to pierce the skin of dinosaurs because back in the prehistoric era dinosaurs could pierce the skin of other dinosaurs with their teeth, including the T-rex which sustained damage from other dinosaurs, such as the triceratops. Modern biology shows that mammal bone density (and teeth density, which is a derivative) is stronger than that of reptilian bone density in the prehistoric era. Enamel, in addition, is even more dense than standard bone. Therefore, wolves can pierce the skin of a T-rex with bites.

T-rex= Ten Zealots
One wolf= one ling


One T-rex(10 zealots) vs. 50 wolves(50 lings)=dead T-rex

Don't most animals have arteries in their legs? Most predators aim for the neck or the arteries in extremities...

a more apt comparison would probably be T-rex = reaver, wolf = ling. 1v1, the wolf will never win, but with proper surround and strength in numbers, the wolf will be able to take down the T-rex

Sounds like a very serious conversation. Thousands of them. The trex would have to kill so many wolves it died of exhaustion.
