| - L'unique espèce connue est Raptorex kriegsteini. Le seul spécimen connu est un juvénile long de 3 mètres et pesant environ 65 kg. Raptorex est un genre douteux de la famille des tyrannosauridés. Ses restes fossiles se composent d'un seul spécimen découvert en Mongolie ,ou peut - être le nord-est de la Chine. L' espèce type est R. kriegsteini, décrite en 2009 par Sereno et ses collègues. Le nom du genre est dérivé du latin rapace, "voleur", et rex, «roi». Bien que initialement considéré comme provenant de la Formation de Yixian en Chine.
- While initially considered to have come from the Yixian Formation of China, dated to approximately 125 million years ago during the early Cretaceous period, later studies showed that such an early date for the fossil are unlikely, and given its extremely close similarity to juvenile tyrannosaurids of the late Cretaceous, it probably came from the Iren Dabasu or similar formation. Because the specimen is a juvenile, and the changes undergone by tyrannosaurids during growth are not yet well understood, many researchers now consider it to be a nomen dubium, because it cannot be confidently paired with an adult skeleton (though it is extremely similar to juvenile Tarbosaurus bataar skeletons of the same size and age).
- Putting Raptorex in your zoo gives you 5 stars of fame. Raptorex was first discovered in 2009. Paleontologists say that it is related to Tyrannosaurus Rex.Raptorex is a primitive type of tyrannosaurid and much smaller than our Tyrannosaurus.Raptorex shows it was very small and was 9.8 feet long and that was at least how long a 5 year old Tarbosaurus was.There are some proportions that belong to other tyrannosaurs that Raptorex had such as a large head and solid constructed head.Since it was a tyrannosaur, it ate meat from reptiles and small birds and could have ate fish like a Baryonyx, plus it's little legs helped it get away from enemies too. It lived in Northeastern China in the rainforests.
- Discovered in: Yixian Formation, Liaoning Province, China Age: Early Cretaceous; Barremian - Aptian This dinosaur was discovered in 2009 in China. It is known from a partially complete skeleton, missing parts of the arm and tail. It belongs to the tyrannosaurs, but its body is much smaller than the typical tyrannosaurs like the infamous Tyrannosaurus. The fossils belong to a juvenile, but the adult must have been almost three meters long. In reports, it has been remarked to being 1/100 of the size of Tyrannosaurus with similar anatomy. It is also the earliest tyrannosaurid.

The fossils belong to a juvenile, but the adult must have been almost three meters long. In reports, it has been remarked to being 1/100 of the size of Tyrannosaurus with similar anatomy. It is also the earliest tyrannosaurid. In life, it was lightly built, with long running legs. However its arms remain small in comparison to body size - a trend that continues into later tyrannosaurids. Like Tyrannosaurus, Raptorex had an enlarged olfactory bulb in its brain, meaning it had a keen sense of smell.
