Gus the T. rex Sells for $51 Million | Global News

A 67-million-year-old T. rex named Gus just smashed auction records, selling for $51 million at Sotheby’s — the most expensive fossil ever sold. Over 60% of his bones were recovered, including evidence of a brutal life with healed injuries. While some worry ultra-rich collectors might hoard such treasures, there’s hope Gus could still go on public display, like the previous record-holder stegosaurus. This sale is sparking renewed global interest in dinosaurs — and maybe even science itself. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
