History[]
Dinosaur Expedition Born Free[]
When a Tyrannosaurus was sighted in Australia, it caught the attention of not only the Born Free but also a group of poachers. The outlaws followed the Born Free, and when they located the King of the Dinosaurs, the poachers instantly opened fire on the animal. The Born Free quickly intervened and stopped the poachers from attacking. The Tyrannosaurus got away, causing the Born Free to focus on saving the poachers from sinking in the quicksand. While getting away, the Tyrannosaurus also fell victim to the quicksand as well, but the Born Free managed to locate it in time and dragged it out of danger with a net, the King of the Dinosaurs was powerful enough to break out of the net and not understanding the Born Free are trying to help, it attacked the Crew but was distracted by the poachers coming back for round 2. The poachers were about to use a powerful anesthetic bomb that would paralyze the animal and make it easier to kill, but the Born Free was having none of it, and they managed to give the poachers a taste of their own medicine. Now with them out of the way, they could focus on the task of capturing the Tyrannosaurus, which proved to be a force to be reckoned with as it almost pushed their vehicle into the quicksand even while trapped in a net. But after some anesthetic rounds, it fell to the ground and was then relocated to a new, safe, and poacherless home. Desert Rampage Tyrannosaurus
Another Tyrannosaurus was seen battling with an Iguanodon in South America. After the Tyrannosaurus finally managed to bite down on the herbivore's neck, the herbivore started running away. The predator followed but was too slow and eventually lost track of its prey. After stumbling into the retreating poachers and flipping over their car, its nose later caught the scent of the Iguanodon, and it resumed the hunt but was just slightly too slow. The Born Free took the Iguanodon away, and the hungry predator attacked the Born Free members and was about to eat one of them. They were forced to fire a bomb at it to save their companion. As the Tyrannosaurus let out one final roar, it collapsed to the ground and died. Iguanodon vs. Tyrannosaurus
Another starving Tyrannosaurus ambushed the Polacanthus, but the armored herbivore managed to get the upper hand. While the two were fighting, the Born Free paralyzed the Tyrannosaurus with an electric discharge, and the predator was relocated to the reserve. The End of Butler
Another Tyrannosaurus appeared and managed to hunt down a Corythosaurus after hacking it into a corner. After it finished eating it walked away in search of a spot to sleep in. The sleeping dinosaurs was found and attacked by Lady Butler, but the predator proved to be a powerfull dinosaur and tended them off, the Born Free were furious cause, the Tyrannosaurus was calm and wasn't trying to hurt anyone and now that it was attacked it got really angry and was going to be much harder to capture. Born Free's fight with the dinosaur was fierce but they managed to put the dinosaur back to sleep. The Carry Donkey appeared to take the dinosaur to the Sarlon Island and they put the Tyrannosaurus in its cage and flee away, when the poachers hit the Tyrannosaurus with an anti-anesthetic that woke up the dinosaur, the raging predator almost caused the Carry Donkey to crash but the Born Free managed to freeze it and in the end it was safely carrier away. A Gigantic Tyrannosaurus!
The final Tyrannosaurus appeared near a village, eating a horse and one of the villagers that tried to hunt the beast down. The Born Free protected the village and tried to capture the beast, but because it was mutated by radiation, it shook off everything the Born Free threw at it. A special anesthetic was required to take the beast, so the Born Free trapped the Tyrannosaurus with electric cables and waited for the anesthetic to arrive when the poachers attacked and the dinosaur broke out. The Tyrannosaurus destroyed the poachers' vehicle, and the Born Free had to stall it so that it doesn't attack the Village. The anesthetic arrived, and the Tyrannosaurus was shot and successfully sedated. The capture was a success. Defeat the Human-Eating Dinosaur!
