No fuckin chance a dog has 25% of the bite force of a lion.

Bite pressure would be a more interesting comparison IMO. Of course a Trex is gonna have a massive bite force because it’s dominated by size.

It’s also got some trick jaws, it’s not 100% from size alone. Like dunkleosteus, which had a novel jaw that amplified the force.

Fair enough, from my very limited research (Chicago museum has an exhibit about this exact thing), some animals use a 4-bar linkage to maximize force. I think Trex was among them.

Forgot the bite force of Russian trolls and Chinese paid actors on any topic remotely concerning Ukraine or Chinese politics, and how the west is actually the bad guys.

Unlimited bite force.
