Geocache Description:


This cache was created by my son who has been geocaching with me since before he was even born heartDinosaurs are his favourite, and he thinks the new Jurassic World movie is the coolest! So here is some info on the fiercest creature never to walk the earth:

 

Indominus rex is a new attraction in Jurassic World. The hybrid was created by combining the genetic traits of multiple species. Some of the known species that were used in the creation of the hybrid are TyrannosaurusVelociraptorCarnotaurusGiganotosaurusMajungasaurusRugops, and Therizinosaurusas well as modern animals like cuttlefish, an unspecified species of tree frog, and a pit viper snake. It's name means "Fierce or Untameable King".

 

Indominus rex has spiky osteoderms across its body and horns above its eye orbits, traits that originated from the abelisaurs DNA used in its creation. Its osteoderms are extremely tough, being able to withstand fire from a GE M134 Minigun and even an indirect hit from an AT4 rocket launcher. It also has well-developed forelimbs from a Therizinosaurus complete with opposable thumbs and a giant sickle claw on each middle finger that it uses to grab prey. Its long arms also allow it to become semi-quadrupedal. A single swipe of its claws are able to incapacitate, and several are able to kill even giant sauropods like Apatosaurus. It is able to change color from the cuttlefish DNA used in its creation, which is used as camouflage in hunting, but also helps the hybrid grow at a quick rate.

 

The teeth of Indominus are tyrannosaurid like its base genome T. rex and are exposed like a crocodile. Due to this bit of instability, its teeth vary in size, often jutting out at unnatural angles and many are broken. Indominus rex has a total of 74 teeth. Another trait that came from Tyrannosaurus being in its gene pool, the hybrid inherited the massively strong bite force it has, which Indominus could use to even crush a bullet-proof Gyrosphere or break the neck of an Ankylosaurus. Its large size is attributted to Giganotosaurus.

 

Happy Caching! It's a jungle out there ;)
