I’ve always been a giant spider person, but when my boyfriend convinced me to get a dinosaur, I thought "what the hell, it can’t be that hard!’

However in the few months we’ve had him he’s broken furniture, chased the mailman and even once attacked my neighbors giant spider.

How can I make him stop? Maybe it’s the food? What can I feed him that isn’t as high energy?

    The hunting drive in T-Rex is way more than some of the other breeds. Raptors for example stop being so hunt driven once they’re separated from the packs. However, T-Rexes being solitary to begin with, retain the drive long after. One thing I have seen that helps is to make them think the particular ‘food’ is disgusting. I would recommend you build a scarecrow of sorts filled with veggies and fruit, and dress it up in a mailman uniform and let your t-rex ‘hunt’ it. Once he tastes the veggies, he will stop hunting the mailman. Good luck! Once the hunt drive goes down, a T-Rex is basically like a baby. Our T-Rex is never violent, even to little kids.
