    Wait for it to sleep find some of it’s shit slather it on, sneak up on it and hope I can cripple it by cutting through a tendon. Run like hell, repeat on other leg when it calms down. Hope it can’t eat and dies before time runs out. Not sure I risk getting near it’s head crippled or not.

    I don’t know if I could cripple it, but for $500mil I’d give my strategy a shot.

        Do you know where those are? Cause I sure as shit don’t. Maybe give it some more stabby stabs with shit knife if it’s in a bad spot. But 💯 on using a shit knife.

    When it falls sound asleep I stab it in a foot or it’s neck or it’s eye.

    I think I eventually do enough damage after it’s hobbled so it bleeds out.

    It all depends on this “hut”. Is it made of straw, wood, or bricks?

    If that t-rex isn’t getting fed, I’m not sure even bricks would keep it out, though. It ain’t no wolf.

          If it’s indestructible straw then you could set it on fire and it would burn perpetually, you could do some real damage to the t-rex with that. Same thing if it’s made from indestructible bricks or indestructible wood.

    Humans used to hunt mammoths, and these fuckers don’t even have a thick layer of fur armor. We used to hunt mammoths, because we were so fucking good at it we killed every last one of them.

    I’m using my knife and making an atlatl, some spears smeared in shit, and I’m going hunting. Every time this bastard goes to sleep, he’s getting a spear with a side of gangrene lodged in him. Fucker’s missed out on 60 million years of techtree development, and has no reply to ranged strikes.

      It’s always funny when people overestimate their own ability to fight an animal.

      Yeah bro i could fight a gorilla.

      I don’t think i could, honestly, but spears and shit from the hut would be my best guess. Or wait until it sleeps and ram it through the eye with full force and run like a motherfucker. In movies they often spear big animals and they live for a long time and cause havoc, i would assume a spear through the brain isn’t good no matter the size.

        There’s a fossil of a t-rex that’s believed to have been very old when it died (like, 28ish). It had evidence of injuries all over it, including having been stabbed through the back of the skull and into the brain by another T-rex’s tooth (the scar was old and healed, so it survived being bitten in the brain)

        I wouldn’t bet on anything but a long drawn out campaign against it

      The real problem is we dont know what a live T-Rex looks like. It could have fur or feathers, it could have wings or wild talons on its hands. What are the odds their arms are as useless as we think they are for real?

        I don’t care if is has feathers, or long grabby arms, I’m waiting for it to fall asleep, and chucking a spear at it, and running, every single time until it dies of bloodloss, gangrene, or exhaustion.

        Does the T Rex even understand what I did? Ranged attacks didn’t exist for 65 million years after it went extinct, does something that evolved to hunt slow, armored herbivores have any response to ranged hit and runs? The many species of megafauna humans hunted to extinction before the invention of writing suggests no.

          Well you’d only have a knife based on the post, so you’d have to throw it and retrieve it, and it wouldnt stay sharp forever. These are all issues with a spear too. I’m sure a T-Rex could out run you as well. Best bet might be to conserve energy and hope the dinosaur starves first.

    Do not leave the hut. Eat like an animal and throw your shit from the hut at the T-Rex’s face. Hopefully it will get sick and perish on it’s own from explosive T-Rex diarrhea.

      It doesn’t say the T-Rex has unlimited food either. Wait until day 29 when it’s starving and can hardly move anymore.

    Scenario didn’t say you had to stay in the hut, or that you couldn’t leave the the arena, or that others couldn’t do the fighting for you with other weapons.

    I would wait and hide, allowing the T-Rex to tire itself out. Then one night, when the T-Rex was especially tired and soundly asleep, I would carefully climb into the T-Rex’s cloaca. There I would stay for the rest of the month.

    That’s it, you can keep the 500 million. I’ve already won.

    I will craft a rudimentary instrument using any materials available in my hut and using my very high charisma I will seduce the beast.
