Abstract
⺠Tarbosaurus bite marks are identified on gastralia of the enigmatic theropod Deinocheirus. ⺠Evidence suggests bites are a result of feeding/scavenging behaviour, not interspecific agonism. ⺠These findings are consistent with opportunistic feeding style in tyrannosaurids. ⺠Feeding/scavenging was partly responsible for disarticulation of the Deinocheirus skeleton.
