The issue of whether or not the T-Rex had lips is a subject of ongoing debate among paleontologists. Some researchers argue that the T-Rex likely had scaly lips similar to those of modern reptiles, such as lizards and snakes. These lips would have covered the dinosaur’s teeth when its mouth was closed, protecting them from drying out or being damaged.

Others argue that the T-Rex might have had more crocodile-like features, with teeth that were exposed even when the mouth was closed. However, it’s important to note that direct evidence for either case is scarce, as soft tissues like lips rarely fossilize. As a result, scientists must rely on indirect evidence, such as the comparison to modern-day reptiles, to make educated guesses about the T-Rex’s appearance.
