When more and more bones surfaced, it became clear that the museum had endeavoured on a project of considerable cost, estimated at seven million euros in November Only one million euros could be covered by the institution's financial reserves. The remainder was raised by a combination of private gifts, municipal and state subsidies, and charity donations. Naturalis promoted a "Tientje voor T. Rex campaign to raise funds for bringing Trix to Leiden. About 23, individuals, mainly children, contributed ten euros. About sixty companies "adopted" a bone. Late , the purchase could be made. Naturalis tried to increase the public awareness of the specimen, a crucial factor in attaining the projected number of visitors. Part of the campaign was a dinosaur sticker book action by the Dutch largest supermarket chain, Albert Heijn , centred on the new skeleton and using Wikipedia images. As earlier with Sue, a legal dispute has arisen about the initial ownership of the specimen. Under the law of Montana, land property can be made a split estate , i. While Murray had the surface rights, two thirds of the mineral rights were held by the Billings Garfield Land Company; the remainder was divided by Murray and former landowners Jerry and Robert Severson. On 21 August , the Seversons claimed in court that the skeleton was a mineral because fossils are mineralised. However, on 20 May , the U. District Court for the District of Montana ruled against them, considering that in normal parlance a dinosaur is not a mineral. Court of Appeals. On 6 November , the Court of Appeals ruled in favour of the Seversons. In June , the Ninth Circuit U. Court of Appeals reversed course, ruling that the fossils belonged to the Murray.

Parts never before discovered in a Tyrannosaurus fossil include a turbinal bone in the nasal cavity. A rare element present is the furcula and the stapes of the ear. There is some root damage from plant growth and some bones had been gnawed by scavengers. A smaller shed tooth was found, attributed to Nanotyrannus. Trix in was the most complete Tyrannosaurus specimen permanently exhibited outside of the USA. Tyrannosaurus skeletons part of the collection of the Natural History Museum, London , are more fragmentary. Due to its very large size and robust build, as well as a thickened postorbital bone, it has been suggested that Trix belongs to the robust, instead of the gracile, morphotype. However, the existence of these categories has been doubted and debated several times. The BHI classified Trix as a female, since they and several researchers theorize that a higher robustness is indicative of belonging to the female gender. Trix's age has been estimated by counting the growth lines in the bones. Two different methods were used for this: a X-ray microtomography, which can be done without damaging the bones, and a very small hole drilled in the fibula to allow comparison with the results of the X-ray based technique. The growth lines were numerous, and difficult to distinguish. These facts alongside the roughness and rugosity of the skull are indications that this individual had reached an old age for a T. During the excavation, the paleontologists found indications of a variety of disorders and damage to the bones. These suggest that during her long life, this Tyrannosaurus survived a number of illnesses and suffered various injuries. The right lower leg bone and one of the ribs show evidence of distorted growth, suggesting a fracture or infection. The jaws also suffered considerable damage. She experienced an infection in the right upper jaw and there are bite traces in the surangular of the left lower jaw. This may have been caused by a male T. Other clues that suggest combat with other T. The last of these injuries was suffered just a few weeks prior to her death. The sacrum and the first tail vertebra show uneven development which could suggest either a birth defect or an injury suffered at a very young age. A number of other inconsistencies were discovered in the caudal vertebrae. Chicago's Field museum sent digital models of their famous specimen, FMNH PR Sue , to complete the cast and the Naturalis museum replicated the arms and foot bones using 3D printing technology. Damaged vertebrae were completed using those of Stan as an example. In printing, the left hindlimb and the right shoulder blade were mirrored from their opposite counterparts. Missing teeth were replaced by inserting real fossil Tyrannosaurus teeth of the appropriate morphology and size. Trix is currently being presented in a unique, low to the ground running pose which allows to feature her actual skull instead of a replica, which has required a substantial amount of support that cannot be achieved with a more traditional pose. It is the only Tyrannosaurus specimen alongside MOR Peck's Rex in which the mount includes the real skull fossilized bones. The decision to use replicas from Sue for filling several missing body parts such as the feet, was made due to Sue being roughly of the same length and robusticity, and the fact that they both have been estimated to be very old for a Tyrannosaurus. Most estimates suggest sizes from 12 Because of her age, gender and face injuries, the tyrannosaur was nicknamed "grandma pusface". Naturalis decided that the skeleton needed an official name, as all main exemplars of Tyrannosaurus possess. There's a T-Rex in Town! by Ruth Symons Publisher: QED Publishing.
