I just sit in the hut and enjoy my food while the dinosaur is starving outside.

Sounds okay to me.

Humana last weeks without food, you think you're going to starvea 7 ton, cold blooded carrion eater to death in a mere month?

7 ton seems pretty big and I think they were warm-blooded, I recon they'll start starving before I run out of food. They may not be dead by day 30 but on those final nights of starving unconciousness you could probably stick it with the knife. Large birds of prey may only eat once per day but they still starve within a couple of days, and the bigger they are, the hungrier they get.

Good point wait out the first 3 weeks then when it’s exhausted launch sneak attacks everything it closes it’s eyes. Plus if the T rex has no food safe to assume it has no water

Alligators and crocodiles can go months without eating. If needed, apparently, even 2 years. I wouldn't count on a dinosaur being weak with hunger in a few weeks.

I mean the brief is of you kill it you get a big payout but you otherwise get to live rent free in a hut for month fully catered. As consolation prizes go there are worse gambles and this one at least means you do not die.
