"How often do you get to buy a fossilized T. rex skeleton?" Keep that in mind, LuxuryLaunches.com says, when you see the price tag on the Mounted Tyrannosaurus Rex Skeleton ($2,390,000) currently available as catalog number TE-036 from a Texas-based commercial paleontological company. Roughly 45 percent of the theropod's bones are real, making it more complete than many museum specimens. Three fossil sites, in Montana and Wyoming, contributed those bones, and the rest are high-quality replicas. The mounted skeleton is 38 feet long and stands 12 feet tall. "As much as it belongs in a museum, we're kinda hoping it's snapped up by an eccentric billionaire."
