During the 1970s invasion of London, the Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the dinosaurs that was brought into the present. The T. rex was one of the most dangerous creatures encountered by the UNIT troops. Though not very bright, they seemed to be bullet-proof and could only be scared away with grenades. One was even shown breaking through a wall. These T. rexes were large, ponderous creatures with short legs, lumpy features and a thick tail. The Doctor encountered at least three T. rexes and captured one in order to find out where (or when) they came from. (DW: Invasion of the Dinosaurs)

Other planets

The Tyrannosaurs was also native to the planet Raxas, and along with the other Raxas dinosaurs, proved to be more than a match for a Dalek attack. They were so strong they could bit the Dalek's dalekanium casings in half and crush at least four Daleks with their massive feet. (DWBIT: #7)
