Albertosaurus Size Comparison
Albertosaurus 3D Viewer pairs published figures for a small Late Cretaceous European theropod with a 1.8 m person - length panel baseline 9 m and mass panel baseline 2.2 t - with published length and mass ranges disclosed separately.
Albertosaurus published figures
The Albertosaurus facts panel and this table use the same real published measures (published length and mass ranges disclosed separately):
| Measure | Figure | Vs a 1.8 m person |
|---|---|---|
| Length | about 9 m panel baseline (typical adult); largest known individual (Dry Island Bonebed) estimated past 10 m; Size vs human uses 9 m | ~5x a person end-to-end at the 9 m scale figure |
| Hip height | about 3.4 m at the hip (panel baseline) | ~1.9x adult standing height |
| Weight | about 1.8-2.7 t (2-3 short tons; panel baseline 2.2 t) | many times a human body mass at the panel baseline |
| When it lived | about 76-70 million years ago | Late Cretaceous (Campanian-Maastrichtian); Alberta, Canada |
| Context (disclosed) | Lightly built tyrannosaurid; albertosaurine closer to Gorgosaurus than Tyrannosaurus rex; Dry Island Bonebed holds at least 26 individuals - mass-death assemblage, not proven pack-hunting | partial skull Tyrrell 1884; named Osborn 1905; carnivore |
How the Albertosaurus size-vs-human toggle stays honest
The Albertosaurus model is drawn to a fixed on-screen length so it fits the canvas; the Size vs human control then places a 1.8 m person at the true length ratio to the catalogue 9 m panel baseline. Tap Size vs human under the canvas to show or hide the scale figure - the comparison is proportional, not a decorative sticker.
What a person would see beside a Albertosaurus
What a person would see is a lightly built tyrannosaurid whose panel length is 9 m - shorter than a 1.8 m person end-to-end - with hip height about 3.4 m in the panel silhouette. Turn on Size vs human and orbit beside a hind leg to feel how a Late Cretaceous Alberta tyrannosaurid compares to you.
What the Albertosaurus size numbers are not
What these size numbers are not is a blended composite: the panel headline figures (9 m / 3.4 m hip / 2.2 t) are never merged with the German juvenile range (about 0.7-0.9 m / 0.3-0.6 kg) or treated as if every specimen matched the French adult. Soft-tissue color in the viewer is still an artistic reconstruction. This model is not a fossil-accurate skeleton. For the control walkthrough see how to view Albertosaurus in 3D.
