Research led by a scientist has revealed a surprising and controversial result about the intelligence of T-Rexes.
One of the dinosaur species that ruled the world millions of years ago, running from hunt to prey and spreading fear. T-Rex A stunning study has been done about it. The research, published in the Journal of Comparative Neurology, shows that T-Rex dinosaurs that they might be smart enough to use tools revealed.
According to the study, T-Rex’s have neurons similar to those found in modern baboons. This indicates that these creatures are so intelligent that they can form cultures among themselves and therefore be open to development from generation to generation.
So what is this ‘culture’?

Culture among animals, passed down from generation to generation know-how represents. The more cognitively gifted a creature is and the longer it lives, the greater the opportunity to build a culture. Longevity and cognitive ability also improve, especially depending on neurons.
The number of neurons in T-Rexes was also calculated:
The sole name behind the study, Dr. Herculano-Houzel also took action to find out the number of neurons in T-Rexes. Leveraging data from modern-day birds, Houzel calculated the number of neurons connected to brain mass.
According to this calculation, T-Rex’s are about 3 billion neurons he had. Moreover, since T-Rex can even live for 40 years or more, they can also create a culture and develop from generation to generation.
Of course, this study also caused a small-scale debate in the scientific world. Some scientists have exaggerated the claim that T-Rex are especially intelligent as their tool-wielding capacity.
