The skeleton of a 40-foot (12-meter) dinosaur nicknamed “Stan”, one of the most complete Tyrannosaurus rex specimens ever found, will be auctioned in New York next month and could set a record for a sale of its kind.<\/p>\n

Discovered in 1987 near Buffalo, South Dakota, the 188-bone skeleton took more than three years to excavate and reconstruct by paleontologists from the state’s Black Hills Geological Research Institute, where it has been exhibited since.<\/p>\n

Stan, who researchers estimate died around 60 million years ago aged about 20, has since been used to make replicas for dozens of museums eager to acquire their own T-rex model.
\nOnly about 50 skeletons of one of the largest carnivores to roam Earth have been discovered since the first in 1902.
\nJames Hyslop, of auctioneer Christie’s, said: “There aren’t very many very good complete skeletons in there.
\n“It is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire a T-Rex as complete as this.”
\nThe sale will be held in New York on October 6, with bids expected from $6 million to $8 million\u2014putting it within reach of the $8.4 million paid for a T-rex named Sue in October 1997.<\/p>\n

“Any natural history museum would consider him the crown of their collection,” Hyslop said.
\nStan\u2014named after the amateur paleontologist responsible for his initial discovery\u2014will be on display in a window at Christie’s headquarters in New York City from Wednesday until October 21.
\nIts head is so heavy that a replica sits atop the skeleton, with the real one presented alongside.<\/p>\n
