Albertosaurus

Albertosaurus was a large, two-legged dinosaur that roamed northwestern North America around 71 million years ago. Named after Alberta, Canada, where its fossils were first found, this predator belonged to the tyrannosaurid family, known for their powerful jaws and sharp teeth.

• Albertosaurus lived during the Late Cretaceous period.
• Its fossils have been discovered in Alberta, Canada, and parts of Mexico.
• Scientists debate whether Gorgosaurus libratus is a second species of Albertosaurus.
