  • An international team of scientists has found that the King of Dinosaurs, T-Rex, was probably not as smart as had been thought.  Here's what we know:
  • Previous experts had deduced that dinosaurs were as smart as primates
  • Current endocasts (molds of fossil skulls) that estimate brain size and tissue proportions give a closer proximation of intelligence
  • According to recent scientific findings, T-Rex's intelligence is closer to that of a crocodile rather than a lofty, smarty pants baboon
  • So, who was the smartest dinosaur?  The Troodon, a dinosaur with a brain the size of an avocado, that was a bird-like dinosaur and stood 11-feet tall and clearly on a higher intellectual level than T-Rex.
