Trio of Rare Dinosaur Fossils Sells for Millions at London Auction

A trio of dinosaur fossils, including two Allosaurus and one Stegosaurus, sold for £12.4 million at Christie's auction in London. These Late Jurassic era skeletons, excavated from Wyoming, were enhanced with modern materials for display. While such sales are criticized for potentially limiting scientific access, Christie's claims many private collectors share their finds with the public. The sale highlights ongoing debates about the commercialization of paleontological discoveries.
