If I asked you what a T. rex ate, you’d probably answer, “Anything it wanted to!” After all, it was a massive creature with very big, sharp teeth. But, well, the Bible actually tells us what this creature originally ate!

You see, God originally created all of the animal kinds—including the tyrannosaur kind—to be vegetarian. Yes, he gave them “every green plant for food.”

But what about those sharp teeth? Well, just because something has sharp teeth doesn’t mean it was designed to eat meat. It just means the creature had sharp teeth! Even today many creatures have sharp teeth but just eat plants!

T. rex—originally a plant eater!
