Who would you pick for size?

T. rex
Banana-sized bone shears
Tool: banana-sized bone shears. Bite: 8,000 psi.
Grizzly Bear

A bite number is only one tool. Coils and kicks count too.
Whose tools would you trust?
SPEED
Who gets there first?
T. rex

HOME
They meet in forest. Who is built for this place?

FOOD
How do they get lunch?
T. rex
Meat · Giant bite-and-pull hunter.
Horned dinosaurs, duckbills, leftover carcasses — a giant meat-eater that did not skip free calories.
Grizzly Bear
Plants and meat · Opportunist: fish, berries, and whatever did not get away.
Berries, roots, moths, moose, and a whole river of fish.
A plant eater is not 'safe.' Hippos and elephants still end arguments.

A STOMP
You skipped a final pick. The facts still stamp a champ.
On forest, T. rex wins. T. rex is a lot heavier. Grizzly Bear would still win some meetings at home.
In the wild, most animals skip a fight. We still judge who the bodies and the place would favor.
Science card: T. rex 4 · Grizzly Bear 3 · ties 1.
Your card: T. rex 0 · Grizzly Bear 0.
The last page follows the whole animal — body plus home — not one bar chart.
