Alright let's see now....

2 adult Trikes + 1 old Trike vs. 2 Adult Rexes = Rexes see there's too much risk with all the horns and they reluctantly walk away.

2 adult Trikes + 1 old Trike vs. 2 adult Rexes + 1 jouvenile Rex = still too much risk

Predators normally don't like to fight, they prefer easy meals.

However, I came up with this while thinking about it: young Rex is over anxious, charges at Trikes, gets injured. Rex parents are infuriated, they charge at Trikes, fight ensues.

Nevertheless, the odds are against the Rexes because the Trikes have their horns and frills, which makes it difficult for the Rexes to attack with their jaws.

Well, it's possible that if one of the Rexes bit down on a Trike's frill it could
exsuhast it and preform a death blow.

If it bit down on the frill, it would get horns in its face.

That depends on which side of the frill the T-rex bites.

That's true...

If it bites down on the frill facing head on, it would get horns in its neck.

If it bites down on one of the sides while facing the Trike, it would get horns on the left or right side of its face/neck.

Now if it was really smart, it could bite down on the frill facing the same way the Trike is facing, so that the horns are facing away from the Rex.

However, the Trike could move so the the horns go into the Rex's side.

Guess it depends on a lot of circumstances.

Or the Rex could break the Trike's neck by jerking it's frill.

Hmmm....now there's a very interesting thought.

Now then, how sturdy are Trike necks? I'd say they're pretty thick and sturdy. Also, would pulling up on the neck break it? I suppose it would be like whiplash.

However, would the Rex know to do this? And with all the commotion, would the Rex have the oppurtunity to do that?

Thier quit sturdy, but remeber, the Rex has incredible strength. The Rex knows that
the Trike's neck is underneth the frill, and it would probley know that if somthing's
neck gets jerked back hard enough, it would break. Put two and two together and
there you have it.

True, any experienced predator would know how to break a prey's neck.

Two more questions:

Would Rexes go for the neck?(behavior theories)(hunting patterns of Rexes)

Would the Rex have the chance to grab hold?(it would probably have to sneak up behind while the other was distracted)

Well, lots of theory about T-rex suggest that all large Tyrannosauridae would focus
thier attacks on the neck or back area.
