Ivan the (terribly treated) T. rex
There is evidently a T. rex informally called "Ivan" to be unveiled at the
"Museum of World Treasures" in Kansas--supposedly about 60% complete. Has
anyone heard of this specimen?
The people involved don't seem to be paleontologists, but the specimen has
been prepared and mounted for public display. This seems scientifically
reckless in light of recent discoveries on fossil bone, soft tissue,
surrounding
matrix, etc. Ivan may have had something important to say before being
stripped to the bone.
