1. According to the international auction practice, dinosaur fossils can be auctioned directly by the landowner if they are excavated on private land. In many countries' laws, what is dug up on private land belongs to the owner of the land, and in this provision, so does dinosaur bone fossils. Therefore, the talents of Christie's auction house can take over the auction of the largest Tyrannosaurus Rex fossil and auction $27.5 million. This pair of Tyrannosaurus rex fossils weighs 8 tons, which is the largest among the Tyrannosaurus rex fossils unearthed.
Second, in some poor countries, valuable dinosaur fossils dug up will also be auctioned. In addition to digging from private land, there are some small countries. If they get such fossils, they will also choose auction to improve people's livelihood. This kind of operation is very common in some small countries, but because their countries are underdeveloped, they will always find a stronger country to back them up at the auction and then give it to this powerful country? Draw it? .
Third, the countries bidding are mostly developed countries. Every seller will have a buyer. In this dinosaur fossil auction, few buyers are individuals, and most of them are museums in a certain country or some paleontological research institutions. After bidding, they will transport them back to their own venues for research or exhibition in various ways, so as to realize the photographed dinosaur fossils. Other institutions try to extract some genes from dinosaur fossils and then study the face of the dinosaur era.
Generally speaking, the auction of dinosaur fossils is not news, but dinosaur fossils are also graded. The rarer they are, the higher the auction price will be. For example, the giant Tyrannosaurus Rex fossil is an extremely rare species among these fossils, and it is foreseeable that it can fetch 27.5 million US dollars.
