{"product_id":"bigger-than-trex-9780517709306","title":"Bigger Than T-Rex","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1993  a giant bone was discovered by an amateur fossil hunter in the badlands of central Argentina. The two paleontologists who were summoned to the site thought it was the thigh of a plant-eating dinosaur  but further examination showed it to be the shin of a previously unknown species of predatory dinosaur. Bigger Than T-Rex is an account of the excavation of the fossil and the subsequent reconstruction of a dinosaur thought to have been bigger  heavier  and fiercer than the reigning \"king\" of the meat-eaters  Tyrannosaurus rex. In clear  easy-to-follow language  dinosaur expert Don Lessem explains how the scientists drew conclusions about the size and habits of the new species  how they came to give it its name-Giganotosaurus-and how it compared to other dinosaurs. Illustrated with color photographs of the excavation and meticulously painted reconstructions of Giganotosaurus and other species  here is up-to-the-minute news about dinosaur discoveries for dinophiles of all ages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67907626008629,"sku":"ByrdShop_0517709309","price":67.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780517709306.jpg?v=1793897860","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/bigger-than-trex-9780517709306","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
