The name Albertosaurus comes from the place where its remains were first discovered on Osborne in 1905. at the province of Alberta, in Canada an it remains discovered in North America. Albertosaurus have 3 classification Saurischia, Theropoda, and Tyrannosauridae.
Albertosaurus, was a diped with a huge head and powerful teeth. Its tiny little front limbs each ended in just two jointed digits. These limbs were too short to reach up to the dinosaur's mouth and yet they were very strong. So, what use were they? Experts have tried to establish what the function of these limbs could have been but so far they have not been able to answer this question.
In 1996, the Canadian palaeontologist Philip Currie discovered some fossilized Albertosaurus skeleton all together ! This exceptional find provided the first real evidence that these huge carnivore dinosaurs lived in herds. The question remains as to what disaster caused the death all these dinosaurs at the same moment. Albertosaurus has the dimensions of 8 meters length 3 meters height and 2 tonnes weight.
