Scientists identified fossil bones found in New Mexico as an ancestor of Tyrannosaurus Rex. The dinosaur was about the size of a dog with a much longer tail, according to a December article in the journal Science. The dinosaur, named Tawa, ate meat and probably had scales and primitive feathers. It walked on two feet like its descendent, T. Rex.
