TL;DR Summary

A well-preserved dinosaur skeleton, named Barry, is set to be auctioned in Paris next month. The Camptosaurus, dating back 150 million years, was discovered in Wyoming in the 1990s and has undergone restoration work by Italian laboratory Zoic. With a height of 2.1 meters and a length of 5 meters, the skeleton is considered rare due to its high level of preservation. Dinosaur specimens are infrequently sold on the art market, and the auction house expects Barry to fetch up to €1.2 million ($1.28 million) when it goes on sale on October 20.
