I have the impression that it is unbalanced, too heavy on the front. How heavy should its tail be?

[@jacobcox4565]

The entire tail could've weighed a ton, but it wasn't just the weight, but also the length. A T. rex's body is kinda like a seesaw, the hips are the fulcrum, on one end is the torso and head, and on the other end is the tail. The tail makes up over half the length of the entire animal, and when you have one end of the seesaw longer than the other, then it can balance out even if the other end is heavier.

Correction: T. rex is not the direct ancestor of chickens. As I understand it, the ancestors of modern galliforms already existed during the time of T. rex. Sue is such an amazing specimen. Wish we had more fossils like her.
