wolves would never attack such a godlike creature. end of discussion.

and yeah wolves are smart, but the T-rex was massive. people seem to forget he can power sweep with his tail and that would fuck any number of respectable wolves up. even superior wolves.

It really depends how fast a trex can move (both walking and attacking) and how long it takes to run out of energy.

Its possible the wolves could simply circle it, prevent it from resting and let it exhaust itself

yeah those god damn things were like 30 feet tall im pretty sure he could just eat each one in succession without any worries because if one tried to latch onto his neck or anything he could just stand up and the fall would fuck it up.

Of course a massively unrealistic number would be able to get it done eventually.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Why do I feel like this sort of discussion would take place in the Office?

But, wolves for the win.

Do wolves even claw because a lot of people has brought it up (would think no)?

Can a wolf's jaw inflict serious damage to a T-Rex (mostly its legs)? Don't think so.

Best strategy would be for wolves to just surround, evade, and exhaust a T-Rex.

Wolves would stand no chance. According to Wikipedia a T-rex would be like 40 feet tall and 14,000 pounds. The largest wolf is about 4 feet tall weighing 175 pounds.

The Trex is 10 times taller and 80 times heavier than the wolf.
You guys watch transformers? Cause imagine yourself fighting optimums prime. How many of you would it take to kill something that size even if it did have short arms.

Optimus Prime is intelligent and agile.

Ten men could beat a 60-foot-tall rock to bits given the time.

Come on guys, have we not learned anything from Starcraft. It takes 9 zerglings to kill an ultralisk, so it must take 9 wolves to kill a T-rex.

...unless of course the wolves have an attack speed upgrade...

I am inclined to call you stupid for that, and inderictly I actualy did in this sentence. But then again we are discussing how many wolves it takes to own a tyrannosaurus. Transformers is fiction, in real life there is something called inertia. The pace at which the Transformers move and especially turn is not possible to achieve.
That's like saying how many men does it take to take down the Stay Puft Marshmellow Man and the answer is 4.

The question is, how thick/resistant was the skin of a tyranosaurus. If Wolf teeth can't cut through, wolves have a bit of a problem. If they can attack his legs, the dinosaur will lose to a much lower number than 50.

it depends on what materials the T-rex's house is made out of.

How many ants would it take to kill a human?

There comes a point where the size difference will more than make up for any numbers advantage within reason, and I believe the t-rex - wolf size disparity is within that range, so my answer is an obscenely large number of wolves.

It would only take a single wolf.

The T Rex existed 65 million years ago. The Gray Wolf is estimated to have originated about 300 thousand years ago. If you put the two into the same time period, their immune systems will be entirely different - the T Rex will have absolutely no defense against what it is eating. The modern diseases and bacteria in a single Gray Wolf would be more than enough to take down a T Rex.
