      To all the people crying about the loss of fossils to science, the only reason that the fossil record is as extensive as it is, is because there is a capital incentive to go out and spend money digging up dinosaurs etc. Countries with laws against fossil hunting and sales have the smallest fossil records and usually lose the most fossils to destruction by mining etc. Do some research. Go to a few museums and ask who donated what, the star attractions are often donated or on loan by private collectors for study and exhibit. People who have no money wouldn't know what was done with it but comment anyway.

    And now Stan, one of the most important finds in paleontology, has been lost to science where literally anything can happen to him. Fossils ground up for remedies in certain areas, maybe they are destroyed, or are just left to stand in some rich persons house because it’s such an interesting conversation starter.

      He's not lost.stop being over dramatic and falling for ad hominem attacks made up by so called "ethical" scientist that created this iusse by trying to steal a fossil.
      Stan has been studied to death and there are a ton of replicas.also Stan still exsit and will probably end up back in the publics hands cuase most fossils that are sold do get donated back to museums.so they aren't lost forever unlike the fossils that get destoryed by mining and farming.
      Not ground up like a lot of scientist claim who actually have a toxic elitist attitude towards fossils that has actually done a lot of damage to discovering new fossils.since they have actually cuased a lot of fossils to actually be lost by taking away fincail incestive to preserve fossils by creating policies that make fosscil hunting illegal.
      Serouisly really think about what demanding fossils from private land owners and hunters actually says about the sceinfitic community and stop being blinded by oh it's lost.

    So, the main set of questions that I have regarding Shen, the newest T-Rex up for auction are as follow: 1 - Who funded the archeology team that found it? 2 - Was this found in Private lands in the United States? 3 - Who has the stamped customs paperwork that shows that this dinosaur was allowed to leave the United States. Overall, i think that this sale should be investigated. I don't like this one bit. This should be part of the United States patrimony.
