]]> Pet grooming has become quite popular in recent years and every few months we are witnessing some new intriguing trend that pops up. The latest one is “dino cut.”

“Dino cut” is currently one of the hottest grooming options among Instagram users and sees cat owners shaving the fur of their feline pets in a way that makes them resemble mini dinosaurs. The cats are given a buzz cut on the sides while the back is groomed into triangular plates to resemble those found in dinosaurs like Stegosaurus, Euoplocephalus, and Kentrosaurus.

To see how “dino cut” looks like, check out some photos below.

]]> Paleontologists announced that they found the heaviest and oldest Tyrannosaurus rex ever known. It’s a dinosaur named Scotty, whose remains were found in the Saskatchewan province of Canada in the 1990s. Scientist claim that Scotty lived around 66 million years ago and probably weighed about 9.8 tons.

“This is the rarest of rare dinosaurs,” said Gregory Erickson, a paleobiologist from Florida State University who was one of the study’s authors. “We have a full, grown adult.”

The dinosaur measures roughly 42 feet long which is described as “unusually long” by the study leader Scott Persons, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Alberta. Scotty’s remains show that he endured injures that led to broken and healed rib, infected jaw and broken tailbones.

Scotty is one of 20 T rex fossils ever found, but there’s still much more to learn about this extinct species. Paleontologists suspect that dinosaurs were probably a lot bigger and older than we originally thought.

Meet Scotty! ⠀ The mightiest Tyrannosaurus rex on record is a behemoth named Scotty, who — during its lifetime on Earth about 65 million years ago — weighed a honking 19,555 lbs. (8,870 kilograms), or about as much as 6.5 Volkswagen Beetles, a new study finds.⠀ ⠀ Scotty was so massive, it edged out Sue, the famous T. rex at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, as heavyweight champ.⠀ ⠀ In all, Scotty is about 880 lbs. (400 kg) heavier than Sue, "which is a lot by human standards, but not as much when you're dealing with a tyrannosaur," said study lead researcher Scott Persons, a paleontologist at the University of Alberta.

“It would not surprise me that those animals turn out to increase the range of body size—potentially to overlap or even surpass what we know from T. rex,” study leader Scott Persons told NG.

The episode of Science Magic Show you can see below shows Anna Rothschild meeting up with Joe Hanson of It’s Okay to Be Smart to visit Professor of Paleontology Dr. Julia Clarke at the University of Texas in Austin. Dr. Clarke updates us on the latest discoveries about dinosaurs, explaining what they sounded like.
