Its diet focused on smaller prey, differing from the large animals targeted by mature T. rex. Some researchers also suggest that Nanotyrannus may have scavenged carrion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"In Stone Fossils ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49100014551262,"sku":"Riley1","price":12000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0466\/5117\/9163\/files\/20260924-115156.jpg?v=1790274540","url":"https:\/\/instonefossils.com\/products\/nanotyrannus-hand-claw-niobrara-co-wyoming-lance-creek-formation","provider":"In Stone Fossils ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
