Tarbosaurus bataar

Tarbosaurus bataar is a very large theropod with similar traits to Tyrannosaurus rex. But the creature seen here greatly differs from the version seen on Isla Nublar. The length of the specimens come at near 11 meters.

Skin: Sonoran Desert + Blank Pattern.

List of differences:

-Much smaller compared to the InGen Tarbosaurus by several meters in height. Based much more closely on the specimen PIN 551-1.

-The skull is thinner.

-No osteoderms present

-Large scales around the mouth.

-Oral sheathe around the teeth.

-Less mobile tongue.

-Smaller body scales.

-Shorter arms proportional to the body.

-Flatter toes.

-Skin based on a Tarbosaurus restoration from a documentary in May 2022.
